How do you re connect the wiring when you change a standard outlet to a GFCI outlet. ?
I want to replace a standard outlet with a GFCI. It will be the second to last outlet in a circuit. The wire is a Romex 12-2 with three cables - neutral (white) hot (black) and ground. It is on a 20 amp circuit.
TURN the circuit breaker off and then...........
The back of the GFI is labelled "line" and "load" The power source plugs into the line side. If you want to have the last outlet protected just connect those wires to the load side. If not, connect them also to the line side. Connect the grounds and you're done. Test the outlet reset and install back in the box.
Good Luck. E-mail me to let know how it goes or if you have any questions.
