GFIs are very sensitive. They trip all the time.
Many MHs and TTs have a 30 amp system but are plugged into a barn or garage with a 20 amp circuit.
Sometimes your rig with a GFI is plugged into a garage circuit with GFI. They fight each other and trip.
uh.... how many times has your hair dryer, electric pressure washer etcl with GFI tripped and faught with the breaker panel GFI????
IMHO pure BS. Downstream GFI's work well with an breaker panel or upstream GFI.
I've got literally dozens of downstream GFI devices used in the house and trailer along with breaker panel GFCI/AFCI on all my circuits and NEVER have had an issue with a downstream GFCI causing conflict or tripping with a breaker panel GFI or vice versa.
Same with our son in his house.
any time one or the other tripped it was a FAULT, pure and simple. They did what they were supposed to do.
True. GFCI's fighting each other and tripping is a myth. But it is a commonly believed myth.
