GFI Receptacles

Does anyone one make a shallow GFI receptacle? I am using the shallow box supplied by VTS and I am not keen on making a spacer from the wall to the face plate. VTS
does not sell GFI's.

This is what I'm using in my factory 70s boxes that are identical to VTS's shallow boxes. It was on the shelf at the local hardware store, and fits just fine.

Hi

The other practical solution is a GFCI breaker. Not so practical with a fuse box. Switching from fuses to breakers is not a bad idea though.
