I have detected ground fault issues in 7 of my 14 outlets in the residence, apartment 25. And I detected numerous ground fault issues in apartment 29 as well. My cat found this issue on the night of September 6 after scent spraying a power outlet. The breaker failed to prevent an overload, a fire started, and I had to manually throw the breaker myself to kill power to the malfunctioning outlet. I believe the landlord is cognizant of the issue as one of the 3 replaced outlets was never discussed as damaged or of issue.
