Leviton Introduces Industry-Leading SmartLockPro® Combination GFCI Receptacle with Pilot Light

Little Neck, NY, March 20, 2009 – Leviton Manufacturing has expanded its SmartLockPRO® line of GFCIs (ground fault circuit interrupters) with the introduction of an industry-leading combination GFCI Receptacle with Pilot Light. The new SmarlLockPro GFCI is ideal for installations requiring a dedicated single GFCI-protected receptacle for applications such as commercial kitchens, sump pumps and other environments requiring GFCI protection. The highly visible power indication pilot light on the device makes it easy for users to determine whether there is power to the receptacle, without having to move equipment to test the device’s circuit.

The new Combination GFCI offers SmartLockPro’s industry leading features, including line/load reversal diagnostics, end-of-life indicator and surge-hardened electronics for superior resistance to surges and overvoltages. Long lasting, energy-efficient LEDs on the device offer a 20-year life expectancy. The device’s bulb-free design means bulbs never need to be replaced.

Constructed of an impact-resistant thermoplastic nylon cover and polycarbonate body, the new combination GFCI resists abuse. The device features heavy duty triple-wipe contacts and plated steel terminal screws. It is available in Ivory, White, Gray, Almond and Light Almond colors with a matching wallplate in a 15A, 125 Volt, 20 A feed-through version. The GFCI is UL listed and CSA and NOM Certified.
