Can you gang more than one GFI in a circuit?

Question

Can you gang more than one GFI in a circuit?

Answer 1

yes you can but it might be cheaper and easier to install a gfi breaker, but you could put as many regular outlets , as your code allows , in a row after the gfi and they will all be gfi protected

Answer 2

It depends on what you plan on using each outlet for and the amount of power you will draw on each one.  You do not want to run them parallel but in series and if one pops it won't effect the others or the appliances pluged into the others.  I would not recomend more than three or four at the most per circuit, preferably only two or three.  With gfci's, the breaker only effects the individual outlet not the entire system.

Answer 3

Can you feed more than one GFI on a single circuit?

Yes, but why bother?

You can connect the first GFI to protect the rest

of the 'downstream' receptacles.

It's a lot cheaper & easier that way.

Answer 4

If  'Gang' refers to adding more than one on a circuit then yea you could but there is absolutely no reason to..

Answer 5

you can not add more then one GFI on a curcuit you can add other plugs though.if you put more then one GFI they can trip each other.if you want to protect another plug outlet on the same line it would be protected if wired correctly by the GFI as long as the GFI is the first one in the line.
