Electrical Outlet Question
Kate wrote:
I have my Christmas lights plugged into several outside GFCI electrical outlets. They do have waterproof covers on them, but with the lights being plugged into the outlet, I don't believe it is adequate coverage to protect it from the rain and snow. Would it be safe to simply tie a plastic bag around it? Any other ideas? Many thanks. Kate Hi, For years I plug light strings into GFCI outlet outside. Now using all LED lights power consumption is very low. Not even single time GFCI tripped. I live in Southern Alberta. BTW, tonight it is near -20 deg. C with some snow on the ground. My lights are already in operation. You know pure water is not a good conductor. |
