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 New Hudson have none. Adding it is one of the least expensive safety upgrades available.

Outlet Installation in New Hudson: common questions
How much does it cost to add an outlet in New Hudson?
It depends on access and the circuit. We can usually quote a firm price over the phone once we know the room and wall type.
Can you add an outlet without cutting up the wall?
In most cases, yes. We fish cable from a nearby outlet, the basement or the attic and cut only the opening for the new box.
Why does my GFCI outlet keep tripping?
It may be protecting a faulty appliance, damp wiring or a worn device downstream. We test the circuit to find out which.
Can you install outlets outdoors or in a garage in New Hudson?
Yes, with weather-resistant, GFCI-protected devices rated for the location.
