Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a GFCI and an AFCI outlet?

These are two distinct safety technologies required by modern electrical codes. A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is designed to protect people from electrocution; it monitors the balance of current between the hot and neutral wires and trips instantly if it detects a leak (a ground fault). These are mandatory in “wet” areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and garages. An AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) is designed to protect the structure from fire; it uses an internal microprocessor to detect dangerous electrical “arcing” caused by loose wires or damaged cords. In many jurisdictions, most living areas now require AFCI protection.

Why should I use "Screw Terminals" instead of "Back-Stabbing" wires?

Most standard outlets have two ways to connect wires: wrapping them around side screws or pushing them into holes in the back (back-stabbing). From a technical standpoint, side-wiring with screw terminals is far superior. Back-stabbed connections rely on a small internal spring to hold the wire in place, which can weaken over time as the wire expands and contracts with heat. This leads to loose connections, flickering lights, and potential arcing. Tightening the wire around a screw terminal creates a much larger surface area for contact and a more permanent, vibration-resistant bond.

Why is "Tamper-Resistant" (TR) hardware now the standard?

Since 2008, the National Electrical Code has required Tamper-Resistant outlets in all new residential construction. These outlets feature internal spring-loaded shutters that block the insertion of foreign objects, like keys or paperclips. The shutters will only open when they sense equal pressure from two prongs being inserted simultaneously (a standard plug). This is a passive safety feature that provides permanent protection for children without the need for removable plastic caps that can be easily lost or swallowed.
