strange gfi problem

Posted by Gary on August 20, 2007, 9:27 pm

I have 2 circuits in my kitchen and both have gfi protection .This morning
when I turned off the floresant light above the sink the gfi on that circuit
popped and shut off power.What could cause this.I reset the gfi outlet and
tried to get a repeat of the problem and every thing worked fine 5 tries no
problem.

Hi,
All connections are tight? Specially ground(green) wire.
