Electrician Hands-On Training
GFCI Installation & Troubleshooting
Every electrician must know how to install and troubleshoot GFCI outlets, because they’re required in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, and outdoor circuits. GFCIs are critical for electrical safety, protecting people from ground faults that can cause shocks. The GFCI Installation & Troubleshooting course gives you the hands-on electrician training to wire, test, and repair GFCIs the right way — skills that are essential for both residential wiring projects and commercial electrical jobs.
Contractors and inspectors demand that GFCIs be installed correctly, and mistakes can cost jobs time and money. Miswired line/load connections, reversed polarity, or failed tests can all cause inspection failures. This course shows you exactly how to wire a GFCI outlet, identify the line and load terminals, and ensure the device is working properly. When you can do that with confidence, you prove your value on any crew.
This training is built for anyone who wants to make money in electrical work quickly. Whether you’re brand new to the trade, fresh out of trade school, or already a helper looking to level up, you’ll practice wiring GFCIs over and over until you’re confident. You’ll also learn troubleshooting skills that help you solve common GFCI issues, like outlets that keep tripping, devices that won’t reset, or wiring mistakes that prevent proper function.
The importance of GFCI installation can’t be overstated. Every residential wiring job and many commercial wiring projects require them by code. Homeowners also frequently request GFCI upgrades when remodeling kitchens, updating bathrooms, or adding outdoor circuits. By mastering these installs, you’ll position yourself for steady work, both on contractor crews and through profitable electrical side jobs.
By the end of this course, you’ll know how to install, wire, and troubleshoot GFCI outlets with precision. You’ll be able to size the conductors properly, land them on the correct terminals, and test the device for safety. You’ll also understand NEC code requirements so you can explain to inspectors and customers why GFCIs are essential. These are the skills that make you job-ready, valuable to contractors, and ready to build a six-figure career in electrical work.

How This Course
Makes you Money
One of the fastest ways to make money in electrical work is by mastering the installs that contractors and homeowners ask for most. GFCI outlets are at the top of that list. Every residential wiring job and many commercial wiring projects require GFCIs in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, and outdoor spaces. When you can install, wire, and troubleshoot them quickly, you instantly make yourself more valuable on any crew.
Contractors lose money when GFCIs are wired incorrectly — line/load reversed, grounding errors, or faulty installs that fail inspection. Every failed inspection means wasted time, callbacks, and lost profit. By knowing how to install GFCI outlets correctly the first time, you save contractors those headaches. That’s why they’ll keep you on jobs longer and pay you more — because your skills protect their bottom line.
This course also prepares you to make money through electrical side work. Homeowners constantly need GFCI outlets replaced, upgraded, or added during remodels. From a bathroom remodel to an outdoor patio project, GFCIs are essential for safety and required by code. With the training from this course, you’ll have the confidence to take on those jobs and put extra money in your pocket.
Another way this course boosts your income is by giving you troubleshooting skills. Contractors highly value electricians who can solve problems without slowing the crew down. When you can figure out why a GFCI keeps tripping, why it won’t reset, or why downstream outlets aren’t working, you become the go-to person for solving problems. That kind of reliability gets you noticed, trusted, and kept on jobs where others get cut.
By mastering GFCI installation and troubleshooting, you’re building a skill set that opens doors in both residential electrical jobs and commercial wiring projects. These are installs that inspectors look for, contractors depend on, and homeowners will pay extra for. The faster and cleaner you can do the work, the more money you make — and this course gives you the training to start earning now.
What You Will Learn
The GFCI Installation & Troubleshooting course gives you the essential skills to install, wire, and repair GFCI outlets correctly. You’ll learn how to identify when and where GFCIs are required by the NEC code — in kitchens, bathrooms, garages, basements, laundry rooms, and outdoor circuits. These are some of the most common installs in residential wiring jobs and commercial electrical projects, and contractors expect you to know them on day one.
You’ll learn how to properly wire a GFCI outlet, including how to identify and land conductors on the line and load terminals. Many helpers and even some apprentices struggle with this, but in this course you’ll practice until it’s second nature. You’ll also learn to size conductors correctly, connect grounding conductors, and test devices with both the built-in test button and external tools.
Troubleshooting is a major focus of this training. You’ll learn how to identify why a GFCI won’t reset, why it trips immediately, or why downstream outlets aren’t working. These skills are critical because contractors and homeowners rely on electricians who can solve problems quickly without slowing down the job. You’ll practice diagnosing and fixing wiring mistakes, bad devices, and load-side issues.
The course also shows you how to apply GFCIs in different wiring methods. You’ll practice wiring GFCIs in nail-on boxes, cut-in boxes, and weatherproof outdoor boxes, using Romex for residential work, MC cable for commercial jobs, and EMT conduit for more complex installs. That way you’ll be comfortable with every type of wiring method you’ll see on real jobs.
By the end of this course, you’ll know how to install and troubleshoot GFCIs that pass inspection, protect homeowners, and impress contractors. You’ll be prepared for residential GFCI wiring, commercial GFCI installs, and electrical side work like replacing old outlets with modern GFCI protection. These are the skills that make you valuable to crews, trusted by homeowners, and ready to make more money in electrical work.
