Every time you trip the GFCI, the power to the device plugged into it will lose its supply voltage.
The trip time for a GFCI is from 15 to 30 milliseconds.
No, it will just trip and cut off the power.
GFCI receptacle are designed to trip on 5 milliamps.
The GFCI is measuring leakage current to ground, so if no current is flowing it won't trip.
A GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is designed to protect against ground faults, not short circuits. Short circuits typically involve an excessive current flow, which is more likely to trigger the circuit breaker in the panel box instead of the GFCI. The GFCI's primary function is to protect against ground faults that could lead to electric shock or fire hazards.
In a word NO, that will not cause either GFCI to trip. The correct term is GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
Yes
A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) measures the amount of current flowing from hot to neutral. If there is an imbalance it will trip and shut of power. It can detect and imbalance of as little as 4 milliamps. It reacts in 1/30 th of a second.
It's possible that the GFI outlet was overloaded by the electric heater, causing it to shut off power to prevent a potential hazard. The circuit breaker may not have tripped because it was on a different circuit from the GFI outlet. It's important to have a licensed electrician inspect the outlet and wiring to ensure safety.
Yes it can.
A GFCI trips when it detects a difference in the amperage going to the outlet and what is coming back. Even 4-6 miliamps difference will trip the outlet.
