Re: GFCI breaker tripping

Some equipment will trip some GFCI breakers. That is why only some things usually most likely three prong and not all three prong will trip some not all GFCI.
Some how a little tiny amperage is leaking to ground in what you are using. That GFCI is sensitive enough to sense it. The trip threshold is milliamps so not much margin for inconsistencies on the part of a GFCI or what is plugged into it.
Another GFCI or different setup may be just insensitive enough not to sense it.
