Picture this: It’s 6:00 AM, you’re in your towel, and the toaster trips the GFCI. 🍞

Instead of just hitting a "Reset" button on the kitchen wall, you have to find your shoes, grab a flashlight, and head out to the main electrical panel in the backyard.

Why? Because the builder saved a few bucks (or a few minutes) by using GFCI breakers at the panel instead of outlets in the room. This is why you always get a private inspection on a new build!
