Why Does My GFCI Outlet Keep Tripping Randomly Without Load?
A GFCI that trips with nothing plugged in usually signals a GFCI device fault, a loose connection, or a problem elsewhere on the circuit or panel. Our electricians perform an immediate safety assessment, advanced diagnostic testing, and fix outlet or GFCI issues with verified safety testing. We handle indoor and outdoor-rated GFCIs across Chicago and nearby suburbs.
Quick steps:
- Do not use the outlet.
- Note any other dead outlets or recent work to tell the technician.
