Got a call from a client saying that the 120V circuit for the gas apliance was tripping. Claim that appliance manufacturer says electronic ignitors will trip GFI circuits. Kind of a problem in that every receptacle in a commercial kitchen has to be GFI protected. We are going to try a gfi breaker instead of the receptacle but I expect similar results. Only other solution would be to put in disconnect and hardwire it so that no receptacle is used.
Anyone else ever run into this? Why would electronic ignition trip the GFI? (Where does the 5 ma of current go)
