Protect Your Outdoor Outlets

摘要

If you ever need to plug in a saw or compressor for an outdoor building project, having a receptacle available outside, rather than running an extension cord into the house or garage, is a great convenience. It's also safer, so model building and electrical codes require receptacles outside of new homes. But because codes are constantly changing, many older receptacles are not up to current standards. If you want to replace one that's broken or outdated or add more, you can't rely on what's there as a template for what right looks like.
