Leviton GSRA2 Port Self-Test GFI RT Ang Auto 20A Industrial Switch

Description

Product Overview

The Leviton GSRA2 Port Self-Test GFI RT Ang Auto 20A is engineered to deliver dependable ground‑fault protection in the most demanding industrial settings. Constructed from high‑impact polymer and reinforced metal contacts, this GFCI switch endures harsh temperature fluctuations, vibration, and exposure to contaminants common in manufacturing plants, utility rooms, and heavy‑duty control panels. The device features a built‑in self‑test mechanism that continuously verifies circuit integrity, alerting users to any degradation before a hazardous fault occurs. Its auto‑reset capability automatically restores power after a temporary ground‑fault event, minimizing downtime and reducing the need for manual intervention. The angled (RT) mounting style provides a compact footprint, allowing the switch to fit into confined panel spaces while maintaining clear labeling and easy access for maintenance. Rated for 20 A continuous current, the GSRA2 meets UL standards for safety and performance, making it a trusted choice for industrial electricians and facility managers seeking reliable protection without sacrificing installation flexibility.

Usage

This GFI switch is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications, including motor control centers, PLC cabinets, power distribution units, and hazardous‑area equipment enclosures. It can be deployed in environments where equipment is subject to frequent start‑stop cycles, such as conveyor systems, pumps, and compressors, ensuring that any ground‑fault condition is promptly detected and cleared. The auto‑reset feature is particularly valuable in processes that cannot tolerate prolonged power interruptions, as it quickly re‑energizes the circuit once the fault clears, helping maintain production continuity. The angled design simplifies wiring in tight panel bays, allowing technicians to route conductors with less strain and reducing the risk of accidental damage during installation. Whether used in new construction or retrofitted into existing systems, the GSRA2 provides a robust solution for protecting personnel and equipment from electrical hazards.

FAQ

What does the self‑test feature do?

The self‑test continuously monitors the internal circuitry of the GFI switch. If it detects a degradation or fault in the protection mechanism, it alerts the user through the indicator lamp, allowing preventive maintenance before a hazardous event occurs.

Can the auto‑reset function be disabled?

Yes, the auto‑reset can be manually disabled by removing the reset link in the wiring diagram. This is useful in applications where a manual reset is required for safety compliance.

Is the GSRA2 suitable for outdoor installations?

The GSRA2 is rated for indoor industrial use. For outdoor or wet‑location applications, Leviton offers a range of GFCI switches with appropriate NEMA ratings.

What size wire can I connect to this switch?

The device supports 14‑AWG to 12‑AWG copper conductors, meeting the 20 A rating. For larger conductors, a compatible terminal block or feeder kit should be used.

How does the angled design benefit installation?

The angled (RT) orientation reduces the overall depth of the switch, allowing it to fit into crowded panel bays while keeping the front face accessible for labeling and troubleshooting.
