Description
The Greenlee GT-10GFI Circuit Tester is
intended to verify correct wiring of any stan-
dard three-wire 120 volt receptacle. It is also
used to verify the integrity of a three-wire
GFI/GFCI (ground fault interrupter/ground
fault circuit interrupter).
Typical 3-Wire NEMA 5-15R

Receptacle (polarized)
Hot Contact (black wire)
Neutral Contact (white wire)

(green or uninsulated wire)
Instructions
Prior to using the GT-10GFI tester, first consult the GFCI manufacturer's installation instructions to determine that the GFCI
is installed in accordance with the manufacturer's specification. Check for correct wiring of the receptacle and all remotely
connected receptacles on the branch circuit. Then operate the test button on the GFCI installed in the circuit. The GFCI must
trip. If it does not trip, do not use the circuit, and consult a qualified electrician. If the GFCI does trip, reset the breaker.
Note: Test the GT-10GFI on a known live circuit before each use. If the unit does not function as expected, call
Greenlee at 800-435-0786.
1. Unplug all appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested.
2. Plug the GT-10GFI into any standard 120 V AC receptacle (NEMA 5-15R).
3. Compare the illuminated lamps on the GT-10GFI to the code key located on the product or in the table above.
Note: If the LEDs indicate anything other than the "Correct Wiring", have the wiring evaluated by a qualified
electrician.
4. If the receptacle indicates the "Correct Wiring", depress the GFI button for a minimum of 6 seconds. When the button is
depressed, the red lamp will momentarily glow brighter, and then all lamps will cease to glow when the GFI trips.
Note: If the circuit breaker does not trip, it suggests a problem with the wiring to the GFCI or a faulty GFCI
device. Have the breaker evaluated by a qualified electrician.
5. Reset the circuit breaker. Repeat the above steps for every receptacle on the circuit, including remotely connected recep-
tacles on all branches.
Note: The GT-10GFI is not a comprehensive diagnostic instrument. The GT-10GFI is a simple instrument designed to detect
nearly all, probable and common, improper wiring conditions. It will not detect a combination of defects. It will not indicate
the quality of ground or reversal of grounded and grounding conductors. It will not detect two hot wires in a circuit. Circuit
capacitance may indicate continuity in an open circuit. Failure to unplug appliances or equipment on the circuit being tested
can cause erroneous readings.
