Electrical Power Outlet advice


I moved my system to the basement. It's listed under the systems as "mewsickbuff's unfinished basement system." There’s only one electrical outlet presently. I’ve made an appointment with an electrician to have 2 more outlets installed. I’ve requested each outlet be wired separately and not piggy backed. Since it’s in the basement the outlets will need to be GFCI. I’ve read a little about Furutech and Hubbell outlets. Are there others? I’d like to know what I need to ask and expect out of the electrician. Thanks.

Sorry, to be more clear:

 

Commercial outlets don't; have TR

Residential outlets do but they're flimsy

Commercial/Residential outlets have TR. These are what I use in most places.  Combined with a hospital grade plug they are plenty tight.

"Raised" 2 generations w/o TR. Boo to the nanny state.

You are stuck with your local code.

I use panel breakers Never tripped except for during tests.

Install GFCI breakers instead of GFCI plugs. I like Hubbell outlets. 😎
