Hey steve

No. you do not get any additional protection. In the event of a ground
fault, the surge of additional voltage will imediately trip the GFCI
at the panel, as this is the first breaker the current will encounter
as it try's to get to you. This goes for any additional outlets
supplied from this breaker, regular or GFCI outlets

Take care and drink plenty of beer!

it may help in keeping you from having to run back to the main panel if it
trips,also it may keep the whole circuit from going out if you trip just the
outlet you are useing. so the lites may stay on so you can see your way
around ,but safty I'm no electrition just a few ideas I came up with. what
is going to be running off this that you need so much protection.
