    Abstract: A faceplate for use with a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) device, where the faceplate includes resilient features such as snaps to affix the faceplate to a height extension shell. The height extension shell accommodates a part of the GFCI device. The faceplate has an opening that exposes at least a part of the GFCI device. By using resilient snaps to affix the faceplate, instead of using screws as in conventional GFCI assemblies, this GFCI assembly makes installation more convenient, saves installation time, and makes the faceplate easier to clean and maintain. It also enhances esthetic without sacrificing function.
