I have asked this question before I have more information now.Yesterday I filled the foot tub with water/ turned it on and I also turned on the massage for the chair. After a few minutes It tripped so I pushed the reset button and it still tripped. I had the plug in the out let down by the floor the outlet above it is the one that tripped?Then I plugged the cord to the pedicure chair into an out let on another wall the chair after 15 minutes was still running. Then I turned the circuit breaker off and all the power to the room went off. Why is the chair running off one wall and not the other one?A guy came out and replaced the two out lets on the other wall that has the plug with the reset button.I was told the other wall needed grounding to run the pedicure chair. What does this mean I need to do. The electrician said It was the chair must have bad wiring. I have used this chair maybe 10 times NEW chair Please help?????? Thanks so very much
Pedicure chairs are required to be plugged into a GFCI protected circuit. Failure to plug the chair into a GFCI receptacle would render the occupier of the chair to a potentially fatal electrical shock in the event of a wiring fault. If your chair is tripping the GFCI, then there is a fault in your chair and it should be repaired by a qualified technician or replaced. DO NOT USE on a circuit that is not GFCI protected.
