[quote=Delphinus;503726]Does it really seem hard to say? The static charge went down the ground wire because the reflector was grounded. Nothing else was on at the time. No current leaked to the hot or neutral wires. Just the ground. Zap. Ground wire. GFCI tripped despite nothing plugged in was on. So it just seems fair to me it could be a combination of current imbalance between the hot and neutral ("black and white") wires and checking for any potential capacitance or whatever it's called, on ground. Ah well. It doesn't really matter to me. Point is it shouldn't be tripping.
WTF!
IS THERE A REASON YOU ARE MOCKING WHAT I AM SAYING? DO YOU HAVE ANY ELECTRICAL TRAINING?
I helped you when you could not get your 3-way switching working. Not impressed at all.
Did you read any of that link that I posted? A GFCI does not function any other way than I described it measures the current on the 2 current carrying wires (the hot and the neutral that you like to call them). It does not measure or check for current on the bare bonding wire (or ground as you like to call it) at all. Period no questions about it.
