Oct 5, 2017 at 10:59 comment added Mike This is a TEST/RESET receptacle type GFCI, I believe Leviton may sell a type of GFCI receptacle that has a switch incorporated in the upper part of it. It has to be 20 amp. I believe everything in a garage is suppose to be GFCI protected. Does a GFCI receptacle protect a light if it does not have a ground wire?
