Hi Txgirl - Thanks for choosing GE. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. This if frustrating, we know. GFCI or GFI (ground fault circuit interrupt) devices detect electrical current that may "leak" to the ground, and if that current flow is too high the GFCI “trips” to interrupt the flow of electricity. These are usually installed as wall outlets with a Reset and Test button, but can also be incorporated into a circuit breaker. All appliances have some small amount of current leakage to ground. You will find these GFCI devices on house circuits for 115V or 120V appliances.We work with breaker and outlet manufacturers to ensure nuisance tripping is minimized and will work together to correct your issue. If your appliance causes a AFCI or GFCI outlet or breaker to trip, reset the AFCI/GFCI. If the AFCI/GFCI continues to trip, please schedule a service appointment online at GEAppliances.com/service or call GE Appliance Service at 1-800-GECares (1-800-432-2737); Monday – Friday: 7 a.m. – 10 p.m. ET; Saturday – Sunday: 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. ET. We hope this is helpful. Keep in touch at GEAppliances.com. Sue
