Will GFCI work with items without equipment ground
I know it's probably a dumb question but my wife's hair dryer is old and has no equipment ground. Wanted to be sure she is still protected if it should be dropped into water or otherwise shorted.

I had a freezer in the garage on a GFCI outlet. Worked fine for years. Finally, it started tripping the GFCI. I bought the largest most expensive freezer they made to replace the freezer that kept tripping the GFCI. The new freezer tripped the GFCI. I replaced the $12 GFCI and had no more problems. DW has not let me live that down yet, and it has been 20 years.
