My point is we need to always treat an electrical connection with respect. GFCI can and do fail. I never assume a circuit is not live. And yes, I've had a shock or two in my life.
If it is raining I plug in wearing rubber boots and silicone gloves. As well I "shuffle" (drag your feet across the ground) as I'm moving to and from the pedestal. If there is water on the ground I prop up the cord to keep it from being submerged.
I'm at a location at the moment where the GFCI prevents me from using the Magnum Inverter charger. So it is back to the OEM converter. It is a pain in the neck not having the load support feature. What is maddening is the Magnum works with some GFCI outlets, but NOT all.
