Re: GFCI breaker tripping
Distance: Around 50 feet or so. I'm pretty sure this house was wired by monkeys, so it wouldn't surprise me if it was longer than it needed to be.
Number of outlets: The outdoor outlet is the only thing on this breaker.
Both the laptop and the microwave were 3 prong. The Shop-Vac and computer were also 3 prong, but they didn't cause it to trip. I don't think I've seen anything with only 2 prongs trip the breaker yet.
As for what type of breaker, I have no idea, but I'm sure someone can tell by looking at the picture.
Thanks. |

Where's the rest of that system? Is that a sub-panel? Can't even see the main feeds in that picture. I don't recognize the screw-on breakers, but I'll bet one of the pros here will. |

Toronto, ON | That is the main and only panel. I took that picture a few years ago and I guess I forgot to also include the portion on the left where the main breaker is. |
