GFCI Outlet Installation & Safety Services in Clovis, CA | Clovis Electric


Stay Protected From Shock and Fire With Code-Compliant GFCI Outlets


Electrical safety doesn’t stop at the panel—it starts at the outlet. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlets are one of the most important protections in any modern home, especially in moisture-prone areas like kitchens, bathrooms, garages, and outdoor spaces. At Clovis Electric, we provide expert GFCI installation, replacement, and inspection services throughout Clovis, CA, helping homeowners bring their homes up to code and reduce risk.

If you’ve never updated your outlets—or you’re not sure what type you have—our licensed electricians can assess your home and install the proper safeguards to keep your family and property protected.

What Is a GFCI Outlet, and Why Do You Need It?

Fast Detection. Life-Saving Protection.

GFCI outlets are designed to shut off power in a fraction of a second if they detect an imbalance in the flow of electricity—often caused by contact with water or a ground fault. That quick shutoff can prevent serious electric shock or even save a life.

These outlets are required by code in areas where electricity and water may come into contact, including:

  • Bathrooms
  • Kitchens (near sinks or countertops)
  • Garages
  • Laundry rooms
  • Basements
  • Utility rooms
  • Outdoor receptacles
  • Pool and spa areas

Whether you're remodeling or just trying to improve safety, GFCI outlets are one of the smartest, most affordable electrical upgrades you can make.

Common Signs You Need GFCI Replacement


Outlets don’t last forever, especially in high-use or moisture-heavy environments. Call Clovis Electric at (559) 285-2402 if you notice:

  • Your GFCI outlet doesn’t trip when tested.
  • The “reset” button no longer works.
  • The outlet feels hot or smells like burning plastic
  • You have older two-prong outlets with no ground wire.
  • There are no GFCI outlets in your kitchen, bathroom, or outdoor areas.

In many homes built before 2000, standard outlets were installed in areas that would now require GFCIs under current code. We can help identify these and provide cost-effective upgrades.
