I have noticed that the circuit for the 110 electrical outlets are wired to the same circuit as the refrigerator and the microwave. Seems like a lot on one circuit. Couple of months back we had some trouble with the GFC tripping when we ran an electric heater 1400 watts and the microwave? I would have thought the circuit breaker would trip but it was the GFC on the outlet near the dinnett / bed in our Rpod. I have taken all of the outlets out and checked to make sure noting was grounding out, other than that I can not figure out what could be causing it. Anyone had a similar problem or have any ideas.

Did you try that electric heater on a GFCI outlet at home? It may be a problem with that appliance. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual
