P&S GFCI's
Has anyone used the new p&s gfci's. They made them shorter in depth but they are wider. The grounding terminal is also a pain. For the hot and neutral if you strip out more than a 1/4" there is bare wire hanging out the back of the device. I also believe the face plate is a different plastic because it gets dirty instantly. I hate leviton so I will continue to use P&S but i hope they fix these problems.
This is my first post. I work out of Lancaster, Pa I do mostly residential and commercial work |

Re: P&S GFCI's
Welcome to the board Mr. Fiction (haha) I have not seen any new GFI's but I'll keep my eye out for a POS P&S.

Re: P&S GFCI's
I saw them the other day, didn't really check them out all that much. The Leviton's (for me) have the highest failure rate, the Coopers have been good to me.

Re: P&S GFCI's
I've had a few boxes for a couple of weeks, but I'm still working on the old supply. They're about a dollar more than the old version also.

Re: P&S GFCI's
I haven't used them yet. But I would imagine they'd be nicer to use because they have less depth to them and would easier to fit in a box. Hubbel seems to be the best GFCI's out there but they're too damn expensive.

Re: P&S GFCI's
I am quite partial to Cooper GFIs.
I also can't stand Leviton GFI devices.
