ground fault and shunt trip devices in commercial kitchens
ground fault and shunt trip devices in commercial kitchens
(OP)
If you are suppose to shunt trip any 125v devices underneath an exhaust hood, and all 125v, 15-20amp devices in the same kitchen shall be protected by ground fault devices (breakers or receptacles), Then what do you do when you have a device that falls under both of thos rules and requires shunt tripping because of being underneath the hood, but in the other hand, also requires ground fault protection. I really didn't want to use a GFCI receptacle on a shunt trip breaker because that would locate the GFCI receptacle behind a rather large gas stove (where it would be very hard to reset should it trip)

If you need to shunt trip more than just a handful of circuits it may be less expensive, and far simpler, to have a panel dedicated to shunt trip load and just shunt trip the panel main.
