Description
The Greenlee GT-10GFI Circuit Tester is
intended to verify correct wiring of any
standard three-wire 110 volt receptacle. It
is also used to verify the integrity of a
three-wire GFI/GFCI (ground fault
interrupter/ground fault circuit
interrupter).
Typical 3-Wire NEMA 5-15R INDICATOR
Receptacle (polarized)
Hot Contact (black wire)
Neutral Contact (white wire)
Ground Contact
(green or uninsulated wire)
Instructions
Prior to using the GT-10GFI tester, first consult the GFCI manufacturer's installation instructions to determine that the
GFCI is installed in accordance with the manufacturer's specification. Check for correct wiring of the receptacle and
all remotely connected receptacles on the branch circuit. Then operate the test button on the GFCI installed in the
circuit. The GFCI must trip. If it does not trip, do not use the circuit, and consult a qualified electrician. If the GFCI
does trip, reset the breaker.
Note: Test the GT-10GFI on a known live circuit before each use. If the unit does not function as expected,
call Greenlee at 800-435-0786.
1. Unplug all appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested.
2. Plug the GT-10GFI into any standard 110 V AC receptacle (NEMA 5-15R).
3. Compare the illuminated lamps on the GT-10GFI to the code key located on the product or in the table above.
Note: If the LEDs indicate anything other than the "Correct Wiring", have the wiring evaluated by a
qualified electrician.
4. If the receptacle indicates the "Correct Wiring", depress the GFI button for a minimum of 6 seconds. When the
button is depressed, the red lamp will momentarily glow brighter, and then all lamps will cease to glow when the
GFI trips.
Note: If the circuit breaker does not trip, it suggests a problem with the wiring to the GFCI or a faulty GFCI
device. Have the breaker evaluated by a qualified electrician.
5. Reset the circuit breaker. Repeat the above steps for every receptacle on the circuit, including remotely connected
receptacles on all branches.
Note: The GT-10GFI is not a comprehensive diagnostic instrument. The GT-10GFI is a simple instrument
designed to detect nearly all, probable and common, improper wiring conditions. It will not detect a combination
of defects. It will not indicate the quality of ground or reversal of grounded and grounding conductors. It will not
detect two hot wires in a circuit. Circuit capacitance may indicate continuity in an open circuit. Failure to unplug
appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested can cause erroneous readings.
