The installation process for the Faith GLS-15A-WH Non-Tamper Resistant Duplex Receptacle is outlined in the user manual. Here are the steps:
1. Start by turning off the power at the service panel to ensure safety.
2. If there are two cables (4-6 wires) in the electrical box, detach one cable's white and hot wires from the receptacle and cap each one separately with a wire connector. Make sure they are from the same cable.
3. Re-install the receptacle in the electrical box, attach the faceplate, and then turn the power back on at the service panel.
4. Determine if power is flowing to the receptacle. If power is flowing, the capped wires are the LOAD wires. If not, the capped wires are the LINE wires.
5. Turn off the power at the service panel, label the LINE and LOAD wires, and then remove the receptacle.
6. Follow the appropriate wiring diagram based on whether you have one cable (2 or 3 wires) or two cables (4 or 6 wires) entering the box.
7. Connect the LINE cable wires to the LINE terminals on the receptacle. The white wire connects to the WHITE terminal (Silver), and the black wire connects to the HOT terminal (Brass).
8. If there is a grounding wire, connect it to the grounding terminal on the receptacle. Follow the instructions based on whether your box has a grounding terminal or not.
9. Fold the wires into the box, keeping the grounding wire away from the WHITE and HOT terminals. xxxx the receptacle to the box and attach the faceplate.
10. Test your work by turning the power back on and pressing the RESET button on the receptacle. The LED indicator should emit a green light. Press the TEST button to trip the GFCI and verify that the power is cut off. Press the RESET button again to restore power.
