LEGRAND GFCI

About LEGRAND GFCI

Legrand is a global manufacturer of electrical wiring devices and infrastructure products, with a history dating back to the early 20th century in France. The company's GFCI receptacle line addresses ground-fault circuit interruption requirements in residential, commercial, and institutional electrical systems. These devices are designed to interrupt power when a ground fault is detected, reducing the risk of electric shock. The product family includes general-purpose and isolated-ground duplex receptacles in 15A and 20A ratings, with 5-15R and 5-20R configurations, all operating at 125V AC in a 2-pole, 3-wire design. Hospital-grade versions are available, which meet stricter performance standards for grounding reliability and abuse resistance. Finishes include white, ivory, gray, red, and light almond to match various installation aesthetics. Isolated-ground models provide a separate ground path for sensitive electronic equipment, helping to reduce electrical noise. These receptacles are typically used in healthcare facilities, laboratories, commercial buildings, and residential applications where code requires GFCI protection. 3G Electric supplies the Legrand GFCI line as part of its industrial and commercial electrical equipment portfolio. As a distributor with global logistics capabilities, 3G Electric sources these receptacles to meet specifications for voltage, amperage, configuration, grade, and color. The company supports procurement and maintenance teams by providing access to the full range of Legrand GFCI models, including hospital-grade and isolated-ground variants. Technical buyers can reference manufacturer part numbers such as 1597NTLTRWCCD4, 2097HGTRPIAMBW, and 1597HGTRPIAMBI when requesting quotes. 3G Electric does not manufacture these products; it distributes them as part of a broader offering of electrical components for industrial and commercial applications. The Legrand GFCI receptacles are self-testing in many models, a feature that automatically tests the device's ground-fault detection circuitry to ensure ongoing protection. This aligns with updated electrical codes that require self-test functionality for GFCI devices. The receptacles are constructed with thermoplastic housings and feature tamper-resistant shutters on some models to prevent foreign object insertion. Hospital-grade models undergo additional testing for impact resistance, grounding pin retention, and temperature rise. Isolated-ground receptacles include an orange triangle marking to indicate the isolated ground path. These devices are suitable for installations where electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio-frequency interference (RFI) could affect sensitive equipment. 3G Electric provides these Legrand GFCI products to customers worldwide, with the ability to handle orders of varying quantities and specifications. The company's role is to facilitate access to these components, ensuring that buyers receive the correct part numbers and configurations for their projects. For procurement specialists, 3G Electric offers a streamlined quoting process based on the specific Legrand GFCI model required. Maintenance managers can rely on 3G Electric to supply replacement receptacles that match existing installations in terms of grade, color, and electrical rating. The Legrand GFCI line is part of a broader ecosystem of electrical wiring devices, including switches, outlets, and plates, though 3G Electric's current focus for this brand is on the GFCI receptacle family. All products are new and come with the manufacturer's standard warranty, though specific terms should be confirmed at the time of order. 3G Electric does not provide installation services; it supplies the equipment only. Buyers should consult local electrical codes and licensed electricians for proper installation and compliance.
