Connect the LINE cable wires to the LINE terminals:
•
The WHITE wire connects to the WHITE/SILVER terminal
•
The BLACK wire connects to the HOT/BRASS terminal
Connect the grounding wire (only if there is a grounding wire):
•
For a box with no grounding terminal: (diagram not shown) Connect the
LINE cable's bare copper (or green) wire directly to the grounding terminal
on the GFCI receptacle.
•
For a box with a grounding terminal: (diagram shown above) Connect a 6-
inch bare copper (or green) 12 or 14 AWG wire to the grounding terminal
on the GFCI. Also connect a similar wire to the grounding terminal on the
box. Connect the ends of these wires to the LINE cable's bare copper (or
green) wire using a wire connector. If these wires are already in place,
check the connections.
Complete the installation:
•
Fold the wires into the box, keeping the grounding wire away from the
White and Hot terminals. Screw the receptacle to the box and attach the
faceplate.

Go to step 8a
8A. Test your work
Procedure:
a) Turn the power ON at the service panel. Press the RESET
button fully. The RESET button should stay in. Plug a lamp
or radio into the GFCI (and leave it plugged-in) to verify
that the power is ON. If there is no power, go to step 8B -
Troubleshooting.
b) Press the TEST button to trip the device. This should stop
the flow of electricity, making the radio or lamp shut OFF.
Note that the RESET button will pop out. If the power goes
OFF, you have installed the GFCI receptacle correctly. To
restore power, press the RESET button.
c) If you installed your GFCI using step 7B, plug a lamp or
radio into surrounding receptacles to see which one(s), in
addition to the GFCI, lost power when you pressed the
TEST button. Do not plug life saving devices into any
receptacles that lost power. Place a "GFCI Protected"
sticker on every receptacle that lost power.
d) Manual Test: Press the TEST button (then RESET button)
every month to assure proper operation. Automatic Self-
Test: The Hubbell AUTOGUARD® GFCI automatically
performs a self-test of the electronics every minute. The
Manual Test should be performed every month to assure
proper mechanical operation. In the event of a failure
during either the Manual Test or the Automatic Self-Test,
the LED will FLASH RED indicating that the receptacle has
lost GFCI protection and has reached its end of life. If this
occurs, the GFCI should be replaced immediately.
RESET BUTTON MUST BE FULLY DEPRESSED FOR FULL ENGAGEMENT.
8B. Troubleshooting
In the event the device does not perform properly in step 6a, turn the power OFF and
check the wire connections against the installation diagram. Make sure that there are
no loose wires or loose connections.
9. Instructions for Rewire or Reuse
Prior to removing power before uninstalling, place the device in the tripped state
by pressing the TEST button and verifying that the RESET button is popped out.
