15051-1M

The Woodhead Super-Safeway® In-Line Industrial GFCI (SKU: 15051-1M) represents a critical safety component for any demanding industrial environment. Engineered by Woodhead, a trusted name in electrical safety solutions, this Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter is designed to provide robust protection against dangerous electrical shock hazards. Its in-line configuration allows for seamless integration into existing power cords, offering a straightforward method to upgrade equipment with essential GFCI protection without extensive rewiring. This particular model is rated for 15 Amperes at 120 Volts, making it suitable for a wide array of portable tools, machinery, and temporary power setups commonly found in workshops, construction sites, manufacturing facilities, and maintenance operations. The NEMA 5-15 plug and receptacle configuration ensures compatibility with standard North American electrical outlets and equipment. The integrated 0.61-meter (2.0-foot) cord length provides a convenient and flexible connection point, allowing for easy placement and accessibility where needed. A key feature of the 15051-1M is its manual reset mechanism. Following a ground fault interruption, the GFCI requires a deliberate manual reset action to restore power. This design element is crucial in industrial settings as it prompts an operator to investigate the cause of the fault before re-energizing the circuit, thereby preventing potential recurrence of hazardous conditions and ensuring a thorough safety check. This contrasts with automatic reset GFCIs, which might re-energize a circuit without human intervention, potentially masking underlying issues. Woodhead's Super-Safeway® line is synonymous with durability and reliability, built to withstand the rigors of industrial use. The robust construction of this in-line GFCI is designed to resist impacts, moisture, and dust, ensuring consistent performance even in challenging conditions. By incorporating this device, businesses can significantly enhance workplace safety, protect valuable equipment from damage caused by ground faults, and comply with stringent electrical safety regulations. Investing in a Woodhead Super-Safeway® GFCI is an investment in operational continuity and, most importantly, the well-being of your workforce.
