GFCI outlet moving

You could but would lose GFCI protection for all of the receptacles that were downstream of the original GFCI location. The GFCI is usually the first outlet in a branch circuit, being closest to the load center.

An alternative might be to add in a single gang box, close to the GFCI original location and make that the new GFCI location. The original location can be filled with a standard receptacle.

Is a GFCI circuit breaker available for your box? That may be the easiest fix.

I believe you could change out the breaker in the breaker panel to a GFCI breaker and then change out the GFCI outlet to a standard outlet to take care of your problem.

Yet another RV designed by a non-RVer.

Is this GFCI receptacle tripping a lot? Knowing what the RV industry likes to use, the original may not be of great quality. Even fairly well made GFCI devices don't like being tripped continuously.

Yes, but any outlets between the panel and where you move the GFCI won't be protected by it, and if they happen to be kitchen, bathroom or out doors, you will be in violation of the national electric code

With that said, if it was me , I would do it, but I would make sure my out door receptacle(s) were ground fault protected.

I think Trac has suggested the easiest route.

Since the TV is likely no where near a wet area, and isn't outside, I would have no qualms about swapping it with the next upstream outlet in your situation.

If it's connected to a tandem breaker (i.e. two independent half-width breakers in a single package), and you don't have any additional slots in the breaker panel, you won't be able to replace the breaker with a GFCI breaker. Otherwise, I also like this suggestion a lot if it's doable.

Moving the GFCI to the next outlet in the circuit would be a reasonable alternative provided the TV is mounted someplace that doesn't require GFCI protection. If it's in an outside bay, for instance, it should have a GFCI as that's a (potentially) damp or wet location.

A third option that may be viable would be to replace the TV outlet with a normal outlet and add a GFCI somewhere before it in the circuit, perhaps close to the electric panel, where it's at least halfway accessible to reset.

Question: Does this outlet, and the ones it feeds. have their own circuit breaker? Nothing on this breaker that is not GFCI?

NO; I tried

Yes: Visit your electrical supply and pick up two things

1: Standard 15 amp DUPLEX recptical to replace the GFCI Or a 15/20 if the GFCI has "T" shaped neutral connections.

2: A GFCI/Circuit breaker combination.

Remove the breaker and replace it with the combo (requires a bit of work but should be simple for you) replace the GFCI with the standard outlet.

NOW: you still have full GFCI protection.. Only now it's the breaker that is the GFCI so you need not ask "Did I trip the GFCI or did I trip the BREAKER, they are one and the same.

Question: Why do they not use these breakers at the factory????????
