Perhaps you might have been in a house or an establishment wherein the outlets have three slots: two vertical slots and one hole below in the center. Perhaps you might be wondering why the left vertical slot is slightly bigger than the right vertical slot or why is there a hole on the outlet. Outlets like that are called GFC outlets or Ground Fault Circuit outlets. The left vertical slot is what they call “neutral,” the right slot “hot”, and the hole is the “ground.”

Your Bakersfield, CA GFC outlet is connected to a circuit interrupter. The ground circuit can sense if there is a change in the amount of electricity that flows through the hot and neutral slots.
