Leviton Telcom MGFT1-HG Slim Gfci Outlet

Product Description

The LEVITON TELCOM MGFT1-HG is a slim-profile, tamper-resistant GFCI outlet featuring Lev-Lok modular wiring device technology. Designed for ground-fault circuit interrupter protection, this receptacle monitors current flow and trips within milliseconds when a ground fault is detected, helping protect personnel from electrical shock. The slim form factor allows installation in shallow electrical boxes where standard-depth GFCI devices may not fit. Licensed electricians install this device in residential and light commercial applications where code-mandated GFCI protection is required.

This GFCI outlet is suited for wet or damp location circuits where the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires ground-fault protection, including kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor receptacle installations. The Lev-Lok design is intended for use with compatible Leviton modular wiring systems, making it a practical choice for panel upgrade and retrofit projects. The tamper-resistant shutters prevent foreign object insertion, meeting NEC requirements for tamper-resistant receptacles in dwelling units.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the NEC and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit at the breaker panel and verify absence of voltage with a meter before beginning work. Do not exceed the device amperage and voltage ratings when wiring. Ensure the electrical box depth is compatible with the slim-profile housing before installation.
