What does the lights on the GFCI outlet mean?
It means the breaker has been tripped. There are two possible ways to reset it - some have a button on the outlet (there may be several outlets on one circuit, so you may have to look around) the other is the main breaker in your breaker box. You'll need to find a reset the breaker.
What does do mean in an electrical panel schedule?
An electrical panel schedule is the index that you find on the inside of the door to the distribution panel. If the panel has no door the index is usually stuck on the face of the panel. The label has numbers on it that correspond to the breakers inside the distribution panel. A description of what the breaker feeds is written in the space next to the breaker number. Electricians usually write this description in pencil so that the description can be changed if the breaker's load is changed.
Can you downgrade from a 125amp main breaker to 100 amp breaker using the same box?
You can reduce the breaker size because that limits the current that can reach the main panel. There is no safety issue other than the significant danger in an unskilled person changing out a main breaker.
Need to find a gfci pool outlet?
Do you need to find the outlet at a hardware store, electrical store or around your pool area? At your pool area - GFCI's can sometimes be found around the pool equipment pad. Sometimes they are located just off the deep end of the pool at the edge of the deck straight back from the pool light if your pool has a light. However these fixtures do not have any access to an outlet. It is usually just a GFCI fixture. GFCI's can sometimes be found in shrubbery surrounding the pool. You just have to hunt for it in those locations. And there are the instances where no GFCI is provided. There may also be a GFCI in the circuit breaker box but this one will not have an outlet. What is your need for an outlet? If you have a pool light that does not have a GFCI in the system you then need to call a qualified swimming pool electrician or a qualified pool tech to install one. There are special requirements for this application.K
