GFCI Functionality
A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) receptacle is designed to protect against electrical shock by detecting ground faults. When a ground fault is detected (e.g., electricity flowing through an unintended path, such as a person's body), the GFCI will trip within a fraction of a second, interrupting the flow of electricity to prevent serious injury.
Image: Explanation of GFCI operation, including the definition of a ground fault and the meaning of the green and red indicator lights.
Self-Test and Indicator Lights
- ස්වයංක්රීය ස්වයං පරීක්ෂණය: The GFCI outlet automatically conducts a self-test (the red light will blink once) every 40 seconds to ensure it is continually working and providing protection.
- හරිත දර්ශක ආලෝකය: If the indicator (LED) glows green, it signifies that the GFCI receptacle is installed correctly and is working properly.
- රතු දර්ශක ආලෝකය: When the GFCI receptacle reaches the end of its life or is incapable of passing its internal test function (meaning it can no longer provide ground fault protection), the red indicator light will turn on. This reminds you to replace the outlet promptly.
- පරීක්ෂණ බොත්තම: Press this button to manually test the GFCI's tripping function. The power to the connected devices should cut off.
- බොත්තම නැවත සකස්: After a trip (either from a ground fault or a test), press this button to restore power to the outlet.
6. නඩත්තු කිරීම
The ANKO GFCI Outlet requires minimal maintenance. Regular testing is the most important aspect of ensuring its continued safety and functionality.
- මාසික පරීක්ෂණ: It is recommended to test your GFCI outlets monthly. Press the TEST button, then the RESET button. The outlet should trip and then reset. If it does not trip, or if it does not reset, the GFCI is faulty and should be replaced immediately.
- පිරිසිදු කිරීම: To clean the surface of the GFCI outlet and wall plate, use a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish or internal components. Ensure power is off before cleaning.
- පරීක්ෂාව: Periodically inspect the outlet and wall plate for any signs of damage, cracks, or discoloration. If any damage is observed, replace the unit.

පොදු ගැටළු සහ විසඳුම්
| ගැටලුව | විය හැකි හේතුව | විසඳුම |
|---|---|---|
| GFCI will not reset | Ground fault present; Mis-wired; End of life. | Unplug all appliances from the GFCI and try to reset. If it resets, an appliance is faulty. If not, check wiring for errors (LINE/LOAD reversal). If still no reset, the GFCI may be at its end of life and needs replacement. |
| GFCI trips frequently | Faulty appliance; Moisture in the circuit; Overload. | Identify and unplug the faulty appliance. Ensure the outlet is protected from moisture in wet locations. Reduce the load on the circuit. |
| පිටවීමට බලය නැත | Circuit breaker tripped; GFCI tripped; Incorrect wiring. | Check and reset the circuit breaker. Press the RESET button on the GFCI. Verify wiring connections are secure and correct (LINE and LOAD are not reversed). |
| රතු දර්ශක ආලෝකය ක්රියාත්මකයි | GFCI has reached its end of life. | The GFCI outlet needs to be replaced immediately to ensure continued protection. |
