30mA G.F.P.E. Not a listed device?

[Ada]

Why doesn't the N.E.C. require 30mA G.F.P.E. to be a listed device?

In general the NEC does not require overcurrent protective devices to be listed.

Say what?

I find that hard to fathom...the same code that obsesses over things like THIS does NOT require OC devices to be listed?

the same code that obsesses over things like fittings does NOT require OC devices to be listed?

LMAO :grin: Good one.

Same with general purpose motors, enclosures etc.


But to be fair I do not think the NEC is obsessed with fittings I think UL is.

Thanks Bob..:grin:

To everyone else: My edit happened right after/during iwire's post, that's why it reads differently.

Looking back, the original was funny..and Bob is right, it is UL that obsesses with fittings.

That would include the infamous FPE breakers :grin:

What was the big deal then?
