Feature → Business Impact → Application: The WRSGF20FGY delivers standard ground fault protection for 125V circuits up to 20A, which directly reduces the risk of electrical shock and downstream equipment damage in both homes and workplaces. This translates to measurable safety improvements and fewer costly downtime events during routine maintenance or after power disturbances. Application-wise, it is ideal for flush-mount installations in living spaces, offices, and light commercial areas where a clean, code-compliant outlet is required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The back- and side-wire wiring method supports flexible installation with #14–10 AWG conductors, enabling faster field terminations and reducing labor time during receptacle replacement or new wiring projects. This capability is especially beneficial for retrofit programs and tight wiring spaces in control rooms or maintenance closets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The weather-resistant polycarbonate body provides enduring durability in damp or exposed environments, lowering replacement costs and extending service life for outdoor walkways and covered entryways. It also helps facilities maintain compliance in regions with high humidity or temperature variations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The NEMA 5-20R configuration, two-pole, three-wire grounding, and brass contact material ensure robust electrical contact and reliable performance under cyclic loads, improving connection integrity in daily operations and reducing contact wear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The self-test function continuously monitors the device’s integrity, delivering proactive protection and reducing the likelihood of undetected faults that can cause unplanned outages in critical areas like lobbies, corridors, and service desks. This is advantageous for QA audits and regulatory compliance in both residential and light-commercial settings. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NAFTA compliant and cULus Listed certification provide clear compliance signals for installers and procurement teams, simplifying specification, inspection, and cross-border sourcing. This reduces decision cycles and supports consistent procurement across North American projects. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The compact flush-mount design and 125V/20A rating enable rapid deployment in retrofit or new-construction projects, with minimal sight-line impact and improved aesthetic integration in finished wall plates and panels. This is particularly valuable for facilities with strict electrical aesthetic or code requirements. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A torque rating of 16 lbf-in ensures reliable terminal tension during installation, minimizing looseness over time and contributing to long-term safety and performance in high-use corridors and public areas.
