← TechnologyWhich risk increases when ground fault interrupter (GFI) neutral wire improperly connected?
A)Appliance chassis stays unexpectedly energized✓
B)Breaker nuisance tripping risk drastically rises
C)Voltage imbalances cause motor overheating
D)Reduced harmonic current circulating overall
💡 Explanation
The GFI relies on detecting current leakage between the hot and neutral wires, so incorrect neutral wiring will fail open circuit protection; because of this it will likely still energize appliance chassis, therefore creating a shock hazard rather than performing optimally or harmlessly dropping voltage.
