| reply to sMURF Re: GFCI breaker tripping
Normally, A GFCI trips because of a defective load. It could be an appliance or equipment plugged in. It could also be protected wiring / outlets on the load side of the device. So, the most likely explanation is the GFCI is doing its job and tripping like it should.
I have seen nuisance tripping on GFCI such as large motor loads. While the leakage can't be explained or even megged out, it still happens. This isn't very common at all.
As for the pic, Canada is the only place I've ever seen a sideways double row breaker panel. While the wiring isn't very tidy, I do not see anything unusual. -- Looks like Reverend Wright got his wish - God Damn America. |

Actually, the panel is essentially the same as what you have in the USA, except that some jurisdictions allow for the circuit breaker panel to be mounted sideways as pictured, often as a result of space constraints. |
