Why Does a GFCI Outlet Keep Tripping?

A repeatedly tripping GFCI can have more than one cause. The visible outlet is only one part of the electrical context, so repeated resetting is not a complete solution.

Note the room, nearby outlets, connected equipment, breaker behavior, and whether the issue is repeatable. Do not disassemble electrical equipment to investigate.

If there is heat, damage, odor, smoke, or sparking, stop using the affected equipment and seek professional guidance promptly.
