it explains the system operation and shows the circuitry
throughout the vessel. The GFICI is normally located at the
beginning of a circuit so that all receptacles downstream are
protected. That could be a reason why several components
plugged into outlets will not work when a GFCI is not
functioning.
T h e G F C I ( G r o u n d

the GFCI outlet. The wire labeled
supply current from the branch circuit breaker, and the wire
labeled Load will be the outgoing supply current from the
GFCI to all other outlets downstream.
There are 3 different wire colors connected to the GFCI
outlet for both the line and load cables. The connection
points of the GFCI labeled "HOT" are the current carrying
connections where the brown wires will connect. These
connectors must be connected correctly with respect to
the line and load side of the GFCI device. The connection
points labeled "WHITE" are the "NEUTRAL" return
conductor connections, and where the blue wires are
connected. These connections must also be connected
correctly with respect to the line and load side of the
GFCI device.
