LAS VEGAS, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — October 4–7, 2026 — ELEGRP today announced that it will showcase its latest High-Frequency (HF) GFCI solution at the 2026 NECA Convention & Trade Show in Las Vegas. The new HF GFCI receptacle is designed to minimize nuisance tripping associated with high-frequency leakage currents from modern electrical equipment, helping maintain reliable GFCI protection while keeping connected equipment operating as intended.
“GFCI has been one of our core areas of expertise for many years. From GFCI receptacles and portable GFCI to innovative GFCIs with night lights and USB charging, we have continued to expand our solutions to meet different applications,” said Ronald Zheng, GFCI Product Manager at ELEGRP. “With our new HF GFCI receptacle, we are addressing another challenge brought by today’s appliances and equipment, giving both homeowners and electrical professionals greater peace of mind.”
As electrical equipment becomes more advanced, technologies such as variable-frequency drives (VFDs), inverters, and other electronic controls are increasingly common. These technologies can generate high-frequency leakage currents that may cause conventional GFCIs to trip unnecessarily under certain conditions, interrupting normal equipment operation. High-Frequency (HF) GFCIs are designed to better handle these conditions. By improving the device’s response to high-frequency electrical signals, HF GFCIs can help reduce nuisance tripping while maintaining reliable ground-fault protection.
ELEGRP’s HF GFCI is engineered for these applications, with performance evaluated across the 60 Hz to 150 kHz frequency range. Meeting the requirements for the High-Frequency (HF) rating under UL 943, it is suited for a variety of equipment, including refrigerators, coffee makers, variable-speed HVAC systems, pool pumps, and more. For electrical contractors and professionals, the HF GFCI helps reduce nuisance tripping and avoid unnecessary callbacks, making troubleshooting easier and helping minimize interruptions to equipment operation.
The HF GFCI also maintains reliable protection with ELEGRP’s patented 5-second self-test technology, enabling more frequent monitoring than the UL 943 requirement of testing every three hours. It has also undergone more than 6,000 endurance test cycles, twice the UL standard requirement.
To meet different installation needs, ELEGRP’s HF GFCI is available in standard and integrated night-light versions. The night-light version provides convenient illumination in dark or low-light areas, adding convenience to everyday use.
The new HF GFCI expands ELEGRP’s GFCI portfolio, which includes traditional GFCI receptacles, models with integrated night lights and USB charging, and portable GFCIs. Together, these solutions address a wide range of electrical protection and installation needs.
Visit ELEGRP at Booth #2334 during NECA 2026, October 4–7, in Las Vegas, and discover the ELEGRP’s HF GFCI and other electrical solutions.
