Can a solid state lighting dimmer be used with a GFI breaker?

Issue:
Applying QO-GFI breaker to a lighting dimmer

Product Line:
Miniature Circuit Breaker

Resolution:
It depends on the design of the dimmer. Certain dimmers on the market may tend to nuisance trip the breaker, but not all of them do. The GFI breakers can be used with a dimmer, as long as the leakage to ground is less than 4 mA.
