  2. Schließen Sie die Kabel an:
    • Connect the LINE hot wire to the brass LINE terminal.
    • Connect the LINE neutral wire to the silver LINE terminal.
    • If protecting downstream receptacles, connect the LOAD hot wire to the brass LOAD terminal.
    • If protecting downstream receptacles, connect the LOAD neutral wire to the silver LOAD terminal.
    • Connect the ground wire to the green ground screw.
    • Stellen Sie sicher, dass alle Verbindungen fest und sicher sind.
  3. Montieren Sie das Gerät: Carefully fold the wires into the wall box. Mount the GFCI receptacle and switch into the wall box using the provided screws.
  4. Wandplatte installieren: Attach the wallplate (not included) over the device.
  5. Strom wiederherstellen: Turn ON power at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
  6. Testen Sie den FI-Schutzschalter: Perform the initial test as described in the "Operation" section to ensure proper functioning.
