I have a gfci that trips occasonally and it is down stream from the device I'm using
I have a gfci that I installed at the counter by he sink. I added to the counter doing a remodeling job. I used the refrigerator circuit because to add another circuit wold take a ton of work and the outlets were 2 away. I installed the wire from the fridge outlet and to the gfci and on to 1 more outlet. Using a tester that plugs in and tell you if you have wired it correctly and if you push the button it trips the gfci and the other outlets on that line all trip the gfci. The outlet just before the gfci will not trip using that button. Gut now when I use the water in the fridge now and then that gfci will trip. I know the wires safe correct so why would the gfci trip when I is down the line from the fridge? Even the electricians at work seem puzzled. One said I had some imbalance in the line and that was causing the issue. But why don't the other gfci I have elsewhere that have outlets before them due the same thing when I use power from those outlets? I have double checked the polarity and everything is connect proper and the gfci is connected as line and load correctly. I'm stumped.

I changed that gfci for a new one and so far it has not tripped. It may have been a bad gfci. I will let you know if it does trip.thanks for the help so far. Bp
