My laundry room has a GFCI outlet but it was built too close to the backplate. I had to connect a plug-in transformer and a standard two-pin transformer. So the plug transformer couldn't fit in the bottom socket because of the back panel and if I put it upside down in the top socket it would start to fall forward and at least create a problem where something could fall between the transformer and the socket Catch fire. One option was to just add a power supply that plugged into the GFCI, but I wanted something on the wall that wouldn't clutter up the wash area. As you can see, this surge protector is the only one I've found that doesn't extend under the existing GFCI outlet cover. When plugged in, the surge protector extends 1 1/8" from the front of the GFCI outlet cover and slightly exceeds the width of my 7/8" wide shield to the back of the GFCI outlet cover. In order to securely install this in my GFCI I had to break the bottom alignment pin for the top socket. I think the best way to do this is to use the blade of a utility knife to make a few cuts in the base and after it's made enough cuts, get out your pliers and twist the pin until it breaks. I also had to get rid of the center anchor bolt but that caused another problem because without the center anchor bolt it ripped out of the wall like a reverse plug transformer so I used two bonded command bars and placed them on the GFCI outlet cover above the spout. It's pretty tight and I haven't tried removing it yet because I'm waiting for the glue to set, but if the GFCI works I need to access the reset button. I didn't use USB charging. the options it has, but I'll update this if I find a use for them in the laundry later, like charging drones to deliver clean linen.
