If the first GFCI is wired so that it protects the entire downstream circuit, the second one is unnecessary -- and if it's not wired that way, then the two won't interfere with each other. -- Regards, Doug Miller (alphageek at milmac dot com) It's time to throw all their damned tea in the harbor again. |

GFI down stream from a GFI
Anyone know if installing a GFI on the load side of another GFI can cause
problems. Why would anyone want to? I believe that GFCI is good for protecting only 6(?) outlets beyond itself. Can't imagine more outlets that that on one circuit, but that's the NEC (if memory serves). Enjoy, -- DaveC This is an invalid return address Please reply in the news group |
