Reply:Robert Hall: "It's the garage. I'll just just remember not to shower with it." Come on, you know very well it needs GFCI protection if it's 120Volt 15 or twenty amps.An optimist is usually wrong, and when the unexpected happens is unprepared.

Reply:A carpenter bitched to me about the temporary service I installed. He said it had four GFCI outlets that were no good. I asked if four tripped? A: Yes they did! I asked if he used the same cord he was using the day of our conversation. A: Yes! I looked down, at no point in its length was it free of visible damage. At that moment it was shut in a metal door. I replied; "and you're sure all four ground fault interrupter outlets were no good?" He was very angry!An optimist is usually wrong, and when the unexpected happens is unprepared.
