     GFCI application considerations
6 Installation guidelines for electrical systems with
   GFCI
     Location of GFCI on system
       At load center or panelboard, or a permanently
        mounted type after panelboard
       At outlet box
     Wiring considerations
       At load
       Portable units
       Branch circuits
         120V 2W - with equipment grounding conductor
         120V 2W - older branch circuits without
          grounding conductor
         120/240V 3W - with equipment grounding
          conductor
         120/240V 3W - dedicated to an appliance

     Supplemental GFCI testers
       Possible improper indications when using
        supplemental test devices
         Supplemental test device on circuits containing
          leakage
         Supplemental test device on circuit with open
          grounding conductor
         Supplemental test device on circuit with
          reversed polarity
         Supplemental test device on circuit with
          grounded and equipment grounding and equipment
          grounding conductors interchanged
         Supplemental test device on circuit without
          leakage
         Supplemental test device on circuit with
          reversal of line and load wires
     Other test devices and test instruments
     Periodic verification checks
8 Field troubleshooting
     Line side of GFCI
     At the GFCI
     Load side of GFCI
       Load side of neutral ground
       Equipment ground and neutral connected together
        on load side
       Excessive leakage to ground
       Multi-wired branch circuits (shared neutral)
       High moisture conditions
       Inability to reset tripped GFCI
       Circuit breaker type
       "Supplemental tester does not trip GFCI, but test
        button does"
