abyc ExcerptsGround Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) Explained: Boaters and home owners may be familiar with Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) monted in AC outlet receptacles. A GFCI is a Residual Current Device (RCD) that trips at very low current levels. GFCIs are recommended for circuits supplying AC electrical receptacles in heads, galleys, machinery space, and weather decks.** If installed in a head, galley, machinery space, or on a weather deck, the receptacle shall be protected by a Type A (nominal 5 milliamperes) Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).
