Default SOLVED! GFCI tripping problem

In article ,
says...

The problem ? Shared neutral. Shared neutrals have killed electricians. There were 2 possible solutions, one was to tear out the new walls and require part of the house being careful about the neutrals, or take it off the GFCI and tell them no arc welding in the bedroom. Do it or walk off and they can get a real idiot who doesn't

know a neutral from his big toe.

No, you can not just throw in GFCI breakers or a new box with them and expect no problems.



If it were my house and new construction, they would be ripping out the
walls at their expense.

A good electrical inspector may even require that.
