Emergency call in White Stone, VA, exterior GFCI burned up and failed.
This outlet was taking on moisture, overheating, and finally melted. We removed the damaged device, repaired the wiring, and installed a new weather-rated GFCI with a proper in-use cover to keep the home safe.
If your exterior outlets look like this (or trip often), it’s a sign something deeper is going on. Always treat overheating as a safety concern.
