Bathroom Branch Circuit

[James L]

In my case, each main floor bathroom GFCI feeds an outside receptacle - common in the 90s. No problems until my daughter fired up her hair dryer when the Christmas lights were up.

I just went to a mid-90s house that had all three outside receps on with 3 bath receps and 2 garage receps - on a 15 amp circuit.

Owner said any time he fired up his traeger smoker the breaker tripped. He discovered that if he unplugged the fridge, freezer, golf cart charger and something else I can't remember, it didn't trip
