The answer is Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters the explanation is a Ground fault circuit interrupters control the quantity of current passing from hot to neutral. If there is an inequality, it trips the line. The Ground fault circuit interrupters sense a mismatch as small as 4 or 5 milliamps, and it can respond as fast as one-thirtieth of a second.
