Should Appliances be connected to GFI outlets?   Having trouble on a dishwasher. Dishwasher runs and completes rinse only cycle. But, when I try to run normal wash an the element tries to come on, it trips a GFI outlet up by the cabinets. I element circuit doesn't show to have a short to ground. So I just suggested they change out the GFI outlet for a normal outlet like they have everywhere else in the kitchen.   i thought larger appliances didn't work well with GFIs. Am I missing something?
