I spent Sunday replacing receptacles and switches in the kitchen. This weekend, I'm going to finish the rest of the first floor.
We are in the process of setting up a nano cube for the TV room. Naturally I want to put a GFIC outlet where the tank is. The problem is that there is a half hot outlet there- meaning the bottom is always hot, and the top outlet is controlled by a switch.
1. Can you wire a GFIC in a half hot configuration (i'm guessing not)
2. if not, if I put a GFIC outlet as the first in line for this line of outlets and then the rest of the outlets will be protected?
