NORTH SHORE SAFETY
IMPORTANT!
Please read all the information on this sheet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
NOTICE
BEFORE USING READ INSTRUCTIONS COMPLETELY. TO BE
INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IN ACCORDANCE
WITH NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES AND THESE
INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION!
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BURN, OR EXPLOSION.
DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE INSTALLING. NEVER WIRE
ENERGIZED ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS. FAILURE TO DO SO
MAY CAUSE SEVERE SHOCK, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
WARNING!

Equipment Leakage Current Interrupter (ELCI) is a
device intended to protect equipment against current
leakage at various levels.

Do not use this ELCI if it fails to function as instructed.
Never attempt to tamper with this device.

This ELCI should never be used as a switch to connect or
disconnect power. (Power should be disconnected at
main power feed or by a secondary switch located at
the primary feed of ELCI).

This ELCI is not an over current protection device. (An
appropriate current breaker should be used in series at
primary power feed)
North Shore Safety warrants to the consumer its offering of LineGard Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) to be free from defects in materials
and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of two years from the manufacture date. North Shore Safety, at its option will repair
or replace the defective GFCIs without charge within a two year period from the date of manufacture, provided that the defect occurred during
normal use and was installed according to all published instructions. All returns must be authorized by a North Shore Safety representative. In the
event of product failure please contact a North Shore Safety representative at 1-440-205-9188 to obtain a Return Goods Authorization Number
(RGA) prior to returning any product to North Shore Safety. North Shore Safety will refuse any item if prior Return Goods Authorization has not
been granted. Defective units must be returned prepaid freight, with a description of the problem, and with an attached RGA number referenced
to the Quality Assurance Dept., North Shore Safety, Ltd., 7335 Production Drive, Mentor, OH 44060. Determination of Warranty compliance is
solely at the discretion of North Shore Safety and North Shore Safety's disposition is final.
Disclaimer
North Shore Safety will not be liable, directly or indirectly, for any cost whatsoever associated with installation or removal of any device, or for any

Installation, Testing, and Operating Procedures
40-60 AMP PORTABLE AND PERMANENT SERIES ELCI
CAUTION!

Do not use this device to feed power to Life Support
apparatus.

To minimize nuisance tripping: do not use this device on
swimming pool equipment installed prior to 1965 NEC
code, limit load cable to 250 feet and do not use on
electric dryers and ranges with frames grounded by
Neutral conductor.
NOTICE

An ELCI is a device designed to interrupt power when a
ground fault exceeds a predetermined value. The
interruption of power is fast in order to prevent
injuries. The human body is conductive to electricity.
Any electrical apparatus is a potential shock hazard
when used near wet locations.

The ELCI constantly monitors the current balance of the
conductors supplying power to the load. When a
ground fault occurs, by leakage or by shock, the
imbalance of current is sensed and the ELCI trips when
the ground fault exceeds the key selected trip threshold
of the ELCI.
WARNING!
AN ELCI CANNOT DO THE FOLLOWING:

Will not protect line side

Will not protect you when touching two current
carrying conductors of opposite polarity (ELCI
recognizes this as a load)

Will not protect you when touching a line of another
circuit

Will not detect or interrupt overcurrent
