    Yeah. Every country seems to have a different term for them (FI-Schutz hier) so i counted them as circuit breaker, because they break the circuit.

      They’ve been code in the US since 1975, yet I’ve been in a surprising number of bathrooms from houses in the '80s that did not have GFCI protection. We really didn’t start seeing a lot of GFCI circuit breakers here until the 2000s before then it was all just single protected outlets
