GFCI – Killing the Buzz Before It Kills You
Steve Maurer, IME

Ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs for short … no pun intended) are nothing new. They first became a Code requirement in the 1970s, required for outdoor receptacles and around swimming pools. Actually, they were required for underwater pool lighting earlier than that.

Nowadays, they're required in a lot more places: kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and that dank, dark basement of yours.





Protection Against Serious Head Injury
Chuck Ross

Anybody who spends regular time on a jobsite knows the value a well-made hardhat provides – sometimes I think I could use one just getting around the furnace pipes in my low-ceilinged basement. But hardhats aren’t a buy once and forget it kind of product. For a number of reasons, hardhats and their impact-absorbing suspensions need replacement on a regular basis. By not updating this equipment, you could be leaving yourself open to serious injury or worse.





GFCI Protection – An Industrial/Commercial Requirement
Steve Maurer, IME

In another article, we looked at ground fault circuit interrupters for the home and hearth. But, that's not the only place GFCIs are used and required.

In the work environment, their use is governed by OSHA, NEC® and other codes and standards.
