Houston GFCI Outlets
A ground-fault circuit interrupter or GFCI is an electrical outlet that is designed to have an additional line of defense to protect from accidental electrocution. It works by shutting down electricity from the circuit the moment it detects that there is a difference in the amount of energy that is passing through the device.
At Universal Home Experts, we recommend that you install GFCI faults throughout your home to make it a much safer place. In fact, GFCI faults are now required by electrical code to be installed in certain areas of your home where moisture is present.
AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters)
The primary function of an arc fault circuit interrupter or AFCI is to detect electrical arcs and work to prevent fires by shutting off power before any permanent damage can be done. There are thousands of preventable residential fires every year caused by electrical issues. One of the main culprits of these fires is arc faults.
With an arc fault circuit interrupter installed in your home, you’ll have a permanent protector against potential electrical fires. Any unintended flow of electricity will be detected and shut down.
