Consumers are encouraged to use a qualified electrician to install a circuit breaker-type GFCI. Individuals familiar with electrical wiring practices, who can follow the instructions accompanying the device, may be able to install a receptacle-type GFCI. Otherwise, these devices should also be installed by an electrician or other knowledgeable person. The portable GFCI requires no special knowledge or equipment to install.
