I want to ask you one question, while you hooked all the receptacles and switches from the first GFCI which does have a line in and a line out. Most I have dealt with the line in is at the top if you look at it with the ground hole on the bottom and are they any chance that you hooked it up wrong. You have 2 cables so the power coming in goes on the line side but if you don’t use the corresponding neutral in the same cable it will trip all the time. Forget the instructions, look on the back of the GFCI receptacle and it plainly tells line and loadHi, trying to install a daisy chain of outlets & switches beginning the line with GFI. Whenever the gfi is engaged it pops the breaker.
The gfi has a 'line in' @ the bottom as specified in the instructions in the box and the top is 'load out'. The next outlet is connected from the load out of the previous ( gfi) then it goes into the bottom which is line in etc...
Set up is: GFI, outlet > outlet 1 > outlet 2 > outlet 3 > dual switches.
So the dual switches are the last on the line.
Need help finding out why breaker trips when GFI is engaged.
Any help is upmost appreciated.
