Testing a GFCI is a good way to verify that it is providing protection. While all GFCIs should be tested monthly, users often forget to conduct this test on a regular basis. Now there is a technology available that can supplement the manual testing and regularly conduct an automatic test of the circuit. In June of 2015 there was a revision to the UL (Underwriters Laboratory) standard 943 for Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupters that improves safety for the end-user by requiring GFCI manufacturers to integrate an auto-monitoring (self-test) feature that performs a periodic test to confirm that the GFCI can respond to a ground-fault and, if not, it must visually and/or audibly indicate to the user that it needs to be replaced. Because it's tamper-resistant, SmartlockPro GFCIs are ideal for use in single- and multi-family housing, schools, libraries and childcare facilities. It features an interior shutter mechanism that blocks access to the contacts unless a two-prong or three-prong plug is inserted. This helps to ensure that hairpins, keys, and other items will be locked out to help protect children from electrical injuries. Designed to provide years of reliable performance, the SmartlockPro Self-Test GFCI withstands high torque, resists wire pullout and has a standard brass self-grounding clip. Additionally, its trip threshold meets or exceeds UL requirements for tripping time, and its electronics design provides strong resistance to electrical surges and over-voltages. Leviton is the leading manufacturer of residential and commercial ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) in the electrical industry. Their renowned SmartlockPro brand offers a wide variety GFCIs to help protect people from electrical shock in homes, offices, hospitals, schools, and the outdoors. Built with a patented reset lockout feature that blocks the reset button if GFCI protection has been compromised, Leviton GFCIs meet the latest NEC and UL requirements. You’ll find smart choices for every need, including tamper-resistant, weather-resistant, hospital grade, audible, GFCI/switch and pilot light combinations. 15 Amp, 125 Volt Receptacle/Outlet, 20 Amp Feed-Through, Tamper-Resistant, Self-test SmartlockPro Slim Guide Light GFCI, Monochromatic, back and side wired, self-grounding clip included, wallplate/faceplate sold separately – White. The Self-test SmartlockPro Slim GFCI/Guide Light is a great way to add an extra element of safety when it’s dark without losing outlet space in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms and hospitality guest suites. Instead of needing to plug in a nightlight and take up an outlet space, the device offers dual LED guide lights that turn On and Off automatically based on light levels and uses only 1W of electricity. Designed to meet the latest UL standard for auto-monitoring (self-test) our complete line of self-test GFCIs periodically conduct an automatic internal test to confirm that it can respond to a ground fault. With the slimmest profile on the market, the device allows for fast and easy installation, while Leviton’s patented reset lockout mechanism prevents reset of the GFCI if it is not wired or operating correctly. The self-test SmartlockPro Slim GFCI/Guide Light is the smart choice in ground fault circuit interrupter protection. 120 volts
