I've been having a recurring issue with my GFCI breaker tripping unexpectedly. It happens randomly and without any apparent cause. I've checked all the wiring and ensured there are no loose connections or short circuits. Could it be a faulty GFCI outlet? Or could it be something more serious, like an overloaded circuit? I'm concerned about the safety of my home and would like to understand the potential causes behind this issue. Could you please explain what might be causing my GFCI breaker to trip so frequently?

Secondly, the number of devices plugged into the circuit may exceed its capacity, leading to an overload.
