Can I move a GFCI receptacle?
The GFCI receptacle with the reset button in my TT is buried behind the television in the cabinet. Is there any problem with swapping it with one of the more accessible GFCI receptacle?

I have used multiple GFCIs per circuit, as multiple paralleled GFCI outlets on the same circuit, or as chained GFCIs (one downstream of another). If multiple GFCIs didn't work it wouldn't be possible to use a hair dryer or pressure washer on a GFCI-protected circuit. It also wouldn't be possible to successfully power an RV from a GFCI-protected circuit, which many RV owners routinely do.
Nevertheless, there is no need for multiple gfci's. But I admit I was thinking in terms of any downstream gfci being wired through (i.e; off the load terminals) of the previous gfci. My bad. I'm not a fan of pigtailing, as it creates more possible loose connections, and can make for a rather tight fit inside the box.
