I'm building a new house and new shop with a new sub-panel. I figured I would put in GFCI breakers. Then I bought a Patriot Products electric wood chipper and the company doesn't recommend GFCI because the motor, on startup, tends to trip them. That makes me wonder if I should use GFCI on the circuits where there's a motor.
Thoughts? The motor on the chipper looks like a TEFC to me. I had to install a special 20A breaker and dedicated outlet for the thing.
