Also, are these combined spark detecting/GFCI? Those can be
tripped just by thinking about a thunderstorm.<br>

Part of the renovation added two circuits with GFI breakers in our
electrical box. Well, it seems when the Blendtech kicks in to
high speed there must be an induction of current into another
circuit as one of the new GFI breakers trips. Not the one with
the blender on it, but another one! Am guessing the wires are
running in parallel to tightly packed going through holes in the
floor joists.
<br>
<br>
And it doesn't happen every time the blender kicks into high, only
if it had something heavy to blend. Filling the jar with water
won't produce the sympathetic tripping.
<br>
<br>
The circuit being tripped isn't in the kitchen but runs the lights
and outlets in the breakfast area, so I'm replacing it with a
non-GFI one.
