Middle Atlantic M-GFI Multiplex GFI Plate
Overview
The Middle Atlantic M-GFI is a ground fault interrupter plate designed for integration into Middle Atlantic Multiplex rack enclosure systems. The M-GFI adds GFI-protected outlet capacity directly within the rack, protecting connected equipment and personnel in environments where ground fault protection is required by code — including installations near water sources, in unfinished spaces, or wherever NEC mandates GFI coverage. Rather than running a separate GFI circuit to the rack, this plate consolidates protection at the enclosure level, keeping the installation clean and code-compliant.
Compatibility
The M-GFI is designed for use with Middle Atlantic Multiplex series rack enclosures and power configurations that accept modular plate accessories. Verify your specific Multiplex chassis accepts the M-GFI plate format before ordering — Middle Atlantic Multiplex rack power accessories are not universally interchangeable across all chassis generations. Consult the Middle Atlantic Multiplex documentation or a rack enclosure specialist to confirm fitment with your enclosure model.
Installation Notes
Install into the designated accessory plate bay of a compatible Multiplex enclosure. GFI plates require connection to the enclosure's internal power feed — verify that the upstream circuit is correctly rated and that the GFI plate orientation matches the Multiplex chassis wiring scheme. Local electrical codes govern whether a licensed electrician is required for final termination. For deployments integrating this plate into AV or security rack systems, confirm outlet count and circuit load against the total draw of connected gear before commissioning.
