It my understanding that this (GFCI) is a requirement for ALL outdoor, garage, or receptacles located near water. If yours is not wired this way, call home warranty, and have it fixed.

NEC requires outdoor and garage receptacles be GFCI protected. A lamp post without a receptacle (like those installed here in TV) doesn't need do be on a GFCI. If you installed a receptacle, make sure it is a GfCI.
