GFCI Outlet Installation in Indianapolis
Safe electrical outlets are an essential part of every home, apartment, office, and other facility. If not properly installed and functioning correctly, outlets can be a source of electrical problems and hazards. At Frye Electric, we offer GFCI outlet installation for customers in Indianapolis.
A GFCI outlet monitors the flow of electricity and automatically shuts off the power in the event of a minor electrical problem, such as a short circuit. These outlets are very useful in preventing electrical shocks and saving lives. We install both residential and commercial GFCI outlets.
Call Frye Electric at (317) 659-6899 to schedule a GFCI outlet installation appointment.
Why Install GFCI Outlets?
GFCI outlets provide many benefits, including:
- Enhanced safety: GFCI outlets are designed to protect against electrical shocks and potential electrocution. They monitor the flow of electricity and quickly shut off power if they detect a ground fault or an imbalance in the electrical current.
- Prevents electrical fires: GFCI outlets help prevent electrical fires by interrupting the circuit when a ground fault occurs. This reduces the risk of overheating and sparks that can lead to fires.
- Protects against water hazards: GFCI outlets are especially crucial in areas where water is present, such as kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoor spaces, and near swimming pools. They provide a level of protection against electrical shock in damp or wet environments.
- Code compliance: GFCI outlets are often required by electrical codes, both for new construction and renovation projects. Installing GFCI outlets ensures compliance with electrical safety standards and regulations.
- Easy installation: GFCI outlets can be installed in place of traditional outlets without extensive rewiring. They are available in various configurations, including receptacles and circuit breakers, making installation straightforward.

Our home recently had some "electrical gremlins" that soon culminated in loss of our HVAC and water heater along with some other items on a Friday. Woke up Saturday with no heat and no hot water. An emergency call went out to Frye and Kenny soon was at our home within an hour. He quickly diagnosed the problem and had us back up and running by noon. He was kind, professional, and very helpful in showing us the issues and providing evidences to work with our builder on cause of the issue. I even heard that the owner of the company came out for a quick visit to review the potential solution. How awesome is that. So if you have any electrical issues the Robertson family will certainly recommend you give Frye Electric a call.Alex and Karen R. Avon, IN
