Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) is a device used to protect people from potential shock, specifically electrical shock, caused by electrical malfunctions. It is designed to detect when a ground fault occurs, which is an imbalance in the electrical current that can cause electric shock. When it detects a ground fault, it disconnects the electrical current from the device it is protecting, thus breaking the circuit and preventing any further shock. A GFCI can be used to protect both people and appliances from the potential hazards of an electric shock.

One type of GFCI device is the PGFM-211-B-A1-138A. This is a single-phase, two-pole GFCI designed for residential and light commercial applications, such as kitchens and bathrooms. This GFCI uses a sensitive current fault detection system designed to detect and interrupt ground faults that have currents as low as 5mA. It is designed to protect against short circuits, ground faults, as well as current overload and undervoltage faults. It is UL listed and CSA certified, and operates within a voltage range of 55V-132V AC.

The PGFM-211-B-A1-138A is designed to detect both internal and external ground faults. An internal ground fault occurs when there is a short circuit between a live wire and a grounded metal part of the appliance being protected. An external ground fault occurs when an appliance or tool is insufficiently grounded or plugged into an outlet with incorrect wiring. In either case, the GFCI will detect the fault, disconnect the current, and illuminate a warning light.

The PGFM-211-B-A1-138A works by sensing the current in the circuit. When it detects a ground fault, the GFCI quickly trips, interrupting power to the circuit and indicating a ground fault has occurred. The GFCI will reset when the fault is corrected and the reset button is pressed. This device is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations and can be used in both wet and dry locations, making it a versatile option for many residential and commercial applications.

In addition to the typical residential and commercial applications, the PGFM-211-B-A1-138A is also suitable for agricultural and industrial use. This device can be used in agricultural applications such as irrigation systems as it is designed to sense and protect against ground faults. In industrial applications, this GFCI can be used to detect and protect against ground faults caused by faulty wiring, dust, and other contaminants.

By being able to detect and protect against ground faults created by environmental contaminants, the PGFM-211-B-A1-138A can be used in a variety of applications such as residential, commercial, agricultural, and industrial to provide an extra layer of protection against electric shock. Additionally, the device is UL listed and CSA certified, which ensures that it is regularly tested to meet or exceed the electrical safety standards set by UL and CSA.

Ultimately, the PGFM-211-B-A1-138A is a reliable and versatile GFCI device designed to protect people and appliances from electric shock. With its ability to detect and interrupt both internal and external ground faults, as well as its UL and CSA certification, it is an excellent addition to any electrical safety system.
