REVAS

[edit]

There was a blurb in one of the "Popular" magazines (Mechanics, Science, Electronics) back ca. 1961 about the invention of a device the inventor called the "REVAS" (SAVER spelled backwards). It showed a man next to a light bulb, bare wire in one hand, and the other in a sink full of water. The caption said that the light bulb had been lit moments before. This was the earliest mention of what is now known as the GFCI, Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter. I've tried to find the reference through Google and the magazines' archives, but no luck. So the invention of the GFCI ca. 1961 is correct, but I can't find the reference anymore. ): Paulmmn (talk) 18:39, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
