Don't know about a ready made device, but, it can be easily done. All you need is a relay, the coil of which is fed from the same power supply as the refrigerator outlet. Take a feed from a different circuit than that of the refrigerator outlet (eg a fed from a lighting circuit) and wire that through the Normally Open contact of the relay and then on to a simple sounder or alarm or electric bell etc, or even a warning light. An electrican could easily whip something like this up, i would think for minimal cost. Or if your keen u could do it yourself.

Another answerJust Google "refrigerator alarm" and you should get some good results. Refrigerator alarms are available from as low as $9.99

Do you wire a gfci outlet differently?

No, except that you insert the wires into the holes on the back of the outlet. The power in connects to the LINE side of the outlet and power out connects to the LOAD side of the outlet. This is clearly marked on the back of the outlet. This will not only protect the outlet with the GFCI installed but all outlets receiving their power from that GFCI. If you do not want to protect the outlets receiving power from the outlet then connect that outgoing wire to the LINE side also. But know that only the outlet with the GFCI will be protected and all other outlets will not be GFCI protected.

What is a dedicated outlet?

A dedicated outlet is a single circuit from a single or double pole breaker to a specific outlet or receptacle for a single specific device or appliance. An example of this would be a circuit for a refrigerator, microwave, dryer, range, etc..This is typically referred to as a "dedicated circuit". A dedicated circuit usually is supplying power to only one or perhaps two receptacles, such as a computer station. An example in your home under current code is your washing machine is required to be on a dedicated circuit. Dedicated receptacle circuits may be either 15 or 20 amp.A dedicated circuit is just what it sounds like. I'ts a circuit dedicated to one particular device. Most receptacle (you may call them outlet's) circuits will power several outlets. A dedicated circuit will power only one specific outlet or appliance. Some examples would be a refrigerator, a garbage disposal, or a microwave.
