appliance leakage circuit interrupter (ALCI)
safety device built into the plug. This device

safety device is equipped with a test button
so that its operation can be checked.
This unit should be tested before each use

Why do you need a GFCI?
Electricity and water don’t mix. If your hair dryer falls in water while
it’s plugged in, the electric shock can kill you– even if the switch is
“off.” A regular fuse or circuit breaker won’t protect you under these
circumstances. A GFCI offers you greater protection.
