GFCI RECEPTACLE TESTING AND
RESETTING PROCEDURE
The GFCI receptacle should be properly tested at
least once every month or whenever it is tripped.
To properly test and reset the GFCI receptacle:
• If the receptacle has tripped, first carefully
remove any load and check it for damage.
• If the equipment has been shut down, it must
be restarted.
• The equipment needs to be operating at high
idle speed and any necessary adjustments
made on the control panel so that the equip-
ment is providing at least 80 volts to the recep-
tacle input terminals.
• The circuit breaker for this receptacle must not
be tripped. Reset if necessary.
• Push the "Reset" button located on the GFCI
receptacle. This will assure normal GFCI oper-
ation.
• Plug a night-light (with an "ON/OFF" switch) or
other product (such as a lamp) into the GFCI
receptacle and turn the product "ON".
• Push the "Test" button located on the GFCI
receptacle. The night-light or other product
should go "OFF".
• Push the "Reset" button, again. The light or
other product should go "ON" again.
If the light or other product remains "ON" when
the "Test" button is pushed, the GFCI is not work-
ing properly or has been incorrectly installed
(miswired). If your GFCI is not working properly,
contact a qualified, certified electrician who can
assess the situation, rewire the GFCI if neces-
sary or replace the device.
