What Does GFI Stand For?
GFI stands for Ground Fault Interruptor
GFI, or Ground Fault Interruptor, is an electrical safety device designed to prevent electrical shock by detecting imbalances between the live and neutral wires. When a ground fault occurs, the GFI quickly interrupts the electrical circuit, minimizing the risk of injury. Commonly used in damp or wet areas such as bathrooms and kitchens, GFIs are essential for ensuring safe electrical practices in residential and commercial settings.
