In France one may find some GFC that are in the electrical board and protecting a set of normal overload switches or fuses. This way you can protect a whole set of "things" with one aparatus reducing costs. (in my house there is one GFC to protect all lights circuits, one GFC to protect all wall outlets and one extra sensitive to protect bathrooms circuits. This way, if I mess around with a wall socket, I can still go to the electrical board because there is still light in the house....) Of course, regulations are different among countries, so consult a specialist or at least ask for validation with your circuit diagram....(these things are so dangerous that law forbids sellers to sell un approved parts for circuitry in order to reduce accidents ! This forced me to dump the first radio set my parents bought because I was unable to get the old part, and being an "all current" set, it was impossible to modify....It serve as a paperwheight in my sister's house...) -- Ce message est constitué d'au moins 50 % d'électrons recyclés.
