When it rains, that household circuit that covers my bathroom pops the breaker in my main service panel. The bathroom has a GFI outlet, and I suspect that it is part of the problem. What I mean is that I probably have a small moisture-related short somewhere, and the GFI is sensing it. What I don't understand is why the service panel circuit breaker is blowing. The house is in Southern California, so things stay relatively dry. The house is about 30 years old. The bathroom wiring is original, and although I don't know if the GFI outlet is, I know it hasn't been replaced in a long time, so it's got some years on it. Any idea what's going on here?
