Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) nuisance trip reduction / Nurhafiza Abd Rahman

Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is used to provide protection from electrical shock and/or electrocution by monitoring current flow in a circuit. When there is any different of current return, GFCI would trip. However, some circuit containing load with producing high frequency ballast will h...
