Gfci Red And Green Lights

Gfci red and green lights.

A green light if the green light is on this means the outlet is working as intended and it is providing the necessary protection. What is that all about. I have 2 gfci outlets in my kitchen on different circuits. Some red or amber when tripped.

Green light indicates the device has passed the self test and is providing power red means the device needs attention. A true gfi circuit breaker that goes in a breaker panel has both overcurrent and short circuit protection plus gfci protection. I can t push in the reset or test buttons.
