Can I replace the gally GFCI with a standard home GFCI that you can buy at Lowes or do I need to order a marine grade from MM. I also have a local near buy RV World which I am sure would carry similar a similar 15 amp item.

The green light is on but sometimes I need to plug and replug to get things to work in it and yes I have reset it multiple times. It definitely is not right. Thanks

I would check and make sure you don't have anything on the load side of it that's kicking the Ground Fault.
As for replacing it. I use the standard hardware ones. But only in areas that don't have to be protected from spark.

Yes, you can. But only if you go to Home Depot!

The green is on all the time on the indicator and if I pulg and replug somtimes it works fine. I think I will just replace it and see what happens. Thanks for the ino.
