15054-1M

The **Woodhead Super-Safeway® Right-Angle Industrial GFCI (SKU: 15054-1M)** is a premium-grade ground fault circuit interrupter engineered for the most demanding industrial and commercial environments. Designed to meet and exceed OSHA, NEC, and UL safety standards, this rugged GFCI provides critical protection against ground faults, electrical shock hazards, and equipment damage in wet, dusty, or corrosive conditions. Its **NEMA 5-15 molded construction** ensures durability in high-impact, high-vibration settings, while the **right-angle plug design** minimizes strain on connections—a common failure point in portable or frequently moved equipment. **Key Features and Benefits:** - **Manual Reset Mechanism:** Unlike automatic reset GFCIs, the manual reset feature ensures intentional intervention before power restoration, reducing the risk of accidental re-energization and enhancing workplace safety. This is particularly critical in industrial settings where unauthorized power restoration could lead to arc flashes or equipment damage. - **15A, 120V Rating:** Optimized for standard North American industrial power systems, this GFCI supports a wide range of tools, lighting, and small machinery without compromising performance or tripping under normal load conditions. - **2-Foot Cord Length:** The **0.61m (2.0') cord** provides flexibility for temporary setups, workstations, or equipment that requires mobility while maintaining a secure connection. This length is ideal for avoiding cable strain or pinched wires in tight spaces. - **Right-Angle Plug Design:** The angled plug reduces stress on the outlet and cord, preventing premature wear and tear—a common issue in high-traffic industrial environments. This design also improves accessibility in confined spaces where straight plugs may not fit. - **NEMA 5-15 Molded Construction:** The molded housing resists moisture, chemicals, and physical impact, making it suitable for construction sites, manufacturing floors, warehouses, and outdoor applications. Unlike standard GFCIs, this unit is built to withstand the rigors of industrial use. **Industry Applications and Use Cases:** Industrial professionals rely on the **Super-Safeway® GFCI** in environments where electrical safety is non-negotiable. Typical applications include: - **Construction Sites:** Temporary power distribution for power tools, lighting, and equipment in wet or dusty conditions. The manual reset ensures compliance with OSHA’s lockout/tagout (LOTO) protocols. - **Manufacturing Facilities:** Protection for machinery, conveyor systems, and automated workstations where ground faults could disrupt production or pose safety risks. - **Warehouses and Distribution Centers:** Safeguarding for forklifts, battery chargers, and material handling equipment operating in high-traffic areas. - **Outdoor and Temporary Installations:** Job sites, event staging, and remote locations where standard outlets may be exposed to the elements. - **Workshops and Maintenance Areas:** Reliable protection for bench tools, diagnostic equipment, and repair stations where frequent plugging/unplugging occurs. **Why Choose Woodhead?** With over a century of expertise in electrical safety solutions, **Woodhead** is a trusted name in industrial-grade electrical components. The **Super-Safeway® line** is renowned for its **durability, compliance, and performance** in harsh conditions, making it a preferred choice for safety managers, electricians, and facility engineers. Unlike consumer-grade GFCIs, Woodhead’s industrial models are **tested to withstand extreme temperatures, chemicals, and mechanical stress**, ensuring long-term reliability. **Installation and Compliance Considerations:** When selecting a GFCI for industrial use, professionals prioritize **response time, reset mechanism, and environmental resistance**. The **Super-Safeway® GFCI** excels in all three areas: - **Response Time:** Trips within milliseconds of detecting a ground fault (typically <25ms), meeting NEC requirements for personnel protection. - **Reset Mechanism:** Manual reset ensures controlled power restoration, aligning with safety protocols in high-risk environments. - **Environmental Ratings:** While not explicitly rated for hazardous locations (e.g., Class I, Div 1), its **NEMA 5-15 construction** provides superior protection against dust, water, and impact compared to standard residential GFCIs. For facilities requiring **temporary power distribution**, **portable equipment protection**, or **compliance with strict safety standards**, the **Woodhead Super-Safeway® Right-Angle Industrial GFCI (15054-1M)** delivers unmatched reliability. Trusted by safety professionals worldwide, this GFCI is a cornerstone of any robust electrical safety strategy.
