GFCI for table saw that will stay off after power failure.

[iwire]

I have a customer that wants a GFCI type device that if the power goes out the GFCI will trip and require manual reset once the power is restored. I have seen them advertised but can't remember the name.

Anyone know what I am looking for?

I have not seen a standard GFCI but I used to own an adapter with a gfci cord cap that needed resetting when the power was out. Someone recently was looking for on of these on one of the forums. I'll see if I can pull it up.

Yeah, I can find those. All I have to do is go out to my garage and I have about 40-50 of them. Really.

I am looking for hardwired version.

I am looking for hardwired version.

I have never seen those.

Most tablesaw manufacturers make an optional magnetic switch that will open on a power outage and not close on power restoration.

This is what I was trying to remember.
