Electricians, I have a question - 01/11/24
I have a freezer in my garage/shop. It is plugged into an outlet that is not on a GFI breaker (the only one in the shop). It has a one plug outlet.
I am putting in another freezer. There is a GFI outlet where the freezer is going.
Can I use a multi plug where the one plug non GFI outlet is and plug the new freezer in, along with the old freezer?
Should I just plug the new freezer in a GFI outlet and hope the GFI doesn’t trip when my Christmas lights have to endure a hard rain? The outside outlets are on the same breaker.
Should I get an electrician to take off the GFI from another outlet for the new freezer? Or something I can do?
Thanks!
