GFCI Outlets & GFCI Circuit Breaker Installation



GFCI is an acronym for ground-fault circuit interrupter. It is an electrical outlet that responds to an electrical threat in as little as 1/45th of a second. When a difference of energy is detected the GFCI outlet shuts down the flow of power.


These outlets are most commonly found in bathrooms, kitchens, and outdoors. Installing GFCI’s in strategic places throughout your home will help make your home a safer place. Let Absolute Best Electric inspect your home and make recommendations as to where GFCI placements should be made. The brands we use most are Leviton, Eagle, and Pass Seymour. Whole circuits in your home can be controlled by GFCI-type circuit breakers, and ARCI type circuit breakers are now required for bedroom area outlets.


AFCI Circuit Breaker Installation


Since 1999, bedroom outlet circuit breakers have been required to be of the AFCI type to prevent fires in the bedroom. They are capable of sensing arc fault and disrupting the circuit before a fire can start. If your bedrooms do not have these, let Absolute Best Electric explain to you how you may benefit from this newer and safer technology.



Whole House Surge Protection



Think for a moment about all of those high-cost appliances in your home like kitchen appliances, computers, televisions, sound systems, electronic timers, thermostats, and home automation devices. And think about what happens when your power goes out and then later returns with a massive power surge. You would hope and think that these appliances are protected from surge damage because they have been plugged into a power strip. However, most of these power strips are no more than a convenient distribution point in a convenient form. And even the plug-in surge protectors have a limited and unmonitored life span.


I think that it is time to think about a whole house surge protector. A whole house surge protector is a hard-wired protection system for your entire house and all of the appliances within that will protect them from costly damage.


Give us a call at (818) 225-1314 to get one installed. We can provide all quality brands such as Eaton, General Electric, Ditek, Intermatic, Phoenix, Leviton, Merson, Siemens, and Square D.
