GFCI (ground-fault circuit-interrupter) protection is required for many receptacles (outlets) throughout the house and outdoors. This protection can be provided either by a GFCI breaker or GFCI receptacles. There are advantages and disadvantages to each approach, depending on the installation.
GFCI stands for ground fault circuit interrupter, which is a standard outlet that also includes a built-in circuit breaker. Electricity always seeks the easiest route to the ground, so the term ground fault means any time the electric current departs from its intended flow.
