How to Reset GFCI Outlets & the Breaker
Video Transcript
Hey guys! Dave with Good Life Property Management here to talk to you about electrical breakers. If you’re experiencing a power outage to either some outlets in the house or light fixtures, you want to try a couple
simple things. First, you may want to try resetting the GFCIs. You’re usually going to find these types of outlets around water fixtures, such as sinks, usually around
the kitchen or even around laundry equipment in the garage. All you’ll want
to do is just push the reset button on the top and you’re good to go. If resetting the GFCI doesn’t work, you’re going to want to reset the breaker on the main panel. You usually find these
either in a closet or sometimes they’re behind a bedroom door or even on the
outside of the house near a garage. You’re going to want to find the breaker that’s tripped. In order to reset it, make sure it’s fully in the off position before turning back on. [Demonstrates resetting breaker]. There you go.
