I have a customer that would like me to install a commercial dish washer
However, he would like to make it portable
I sized the conductors at #10 awg
I was going to use 15ft of SO Cord
With the appropriate NEMA twist locks
Since it will be next to the SS sink I would like to put it on a 30 amp GFCI
However, there is no neutral on the Dishwasher
So the neutral on the breaker would be considered open
How can I protect the circuit or do I need to?
Thanks

Multi pole GFCI's do not need a neutral to work.

Some (all??) GFCI breakers require a connection between the breaker and the panel neutral.

They do not require neutral connection to the _load_ in order to function.
