Blaine:

Try testing this way, take a volt meter and test between the small slot on the right side which is the hot leg and then to the screw holding the plate, if that screw is of metal, the GFCI will trip, I just tried that in my own bathroom.

Humm Excuse me Joe.,

But what type of voltmeter did you used to test this one ???

the reason why i ask you because some of the voltmeter dont draw engouh current to trip the GFCI at all. escpally this is true with DVM digtail voltmeter].

Merci, Marc
