Where GFCI outlets are required
A GFCI outlet shuts off power in a fraction of a second when it senses current leaking to ground, which is what happens when electricity passes through a person. Code calls for GFCI protection anywhere water and electricity can meet: kitchens, bathrooms, laundry areas, garages, unfinished basements and outdoors. Many older homes in Comstock have none. Adding it is one of the least expensive safety upgrades available.
