It gives you two receptacles in one position, with built-in ground-fault protection that trips quickly when leakage current is detected, which is exactly what you want around sinks, heads, galleys, and other onboard areas where moisture is part of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis unit is IP20 and intended for protected interior mounting. The front face measures 73 mm wide by 107 mm high, and it needs about 41.1 mm of depth behind the plate, so it is worth checking box depth and cable bend room before you commit. It mounts flush with a built-in mounting frame and uses screw terminals for the connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuplex American-standard receptacle with GFCI protection for 125 V AC, 60 Hz systems, rated 15 A.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass A GFCI function with TEST and RESET buttons and a trip indicator light on the front.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLine and load terminals support downstream protection when the circuit is wired to feed additional receptacles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor-coded screw terminals (green ground, silver neutral, brass hot) for straightforward terminations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-mount format with built-in mounting frame, completed with a 3-module Plana cover plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermoplastic body that is halogen-free, with a glossy white finish (RAL 9003).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP20 rating for dry, protected locations; for spray-prone areas, plan on a compatible protective cover or enclosure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis outlet is meant for a standard flush installation behind a 3-module Plana plate. Wiring is done at the rear screw terminals, and the device supports both a simple feed (line only) and a feed-through configuration (line and load) when you need to protect additional receptacles further down the circuit. Use copper or copper-clad conductors, and keep the circuit de-energized while working.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a boat, it is usually installed on a 120 V shore-power branch circuit (nominal 125 V AC). Make sure the breaker size, wire gauge, and the rest of the AC distribution hardware match the circuit you are tying into, and keep the outlet in a location where it will not be hit by washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eVM14296 is part of the Vimar Plana modular system and occupies a 3-module position. Plan the install around a compatible 3-module mounting box and the matching Plana cover plate. The unit includes a label space on the face, which is handy for marking galley outlets, head outlets, or other circuits you want crew and guests to identify quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a good match for boats that want a familiar USA-style GFCI outlet in the interior without resorting to mismatched residential plates. It fits well in cabins, salons, and workspaces where you want ground-fault protection close to water use, but you still have a controlled environment away from direct spray.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and checks\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the built-in TEST and RESET buttons to verify operation regularly. If the device will not reset when wired correctly and power is present, or if it trips repeatedly without a clear cause, treat that as a service item and replace it. Keep the face clean and dry, and avoid harsh cleaners that can leave residue around the buttons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269532872885,"sku":"QBP882656","price":43.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300396_qbp882656.jpg?v=1771544465","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp882656","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
