GFI circuit breaker keeps "popping"

I have the TV on that circuit and for some reason last night it kept going off. I unplugged everything else from that circuit and it would still pop after about 15 minutes. We have even used a hair dryer on that circuit and it was fine.

I have a diagram that indicates a "refer" is on that circuit. Not sure what that means.

Help

"Refer" = refrigerator. Go outside and unplug the refrigerator power cord which is plugged into a shore power outlet in the cavity behind the door. If that doesn't fix your problem, change the GFCI breaker. They do go bad. If it fixes your problem, it could be an insect nest in the outlet box, corrosion, or something in the refrigerator itself.


That breaker probably also feeds the outside outlet, if you have one. With the breaker off, pull the cover plate and outlet and look for dirt, corrosion, or insect nests.
