Alex, Technically the outlets are not in parallel. The first outlet is connected to the incoming line using terminals marked "LINE". The second outlet is wired to the terminals marked "LOAD". Subsequent outlets are wired in parallel with the second outlet. When the "TEST" button is pushed on the GFCI outlet, you should hear a click and all outlets on the circuit should be dead. If wired incorrectly, the GFCI will only kill the first (itself) outlet and others will still be live.

Or does it matter? Thanks, Alex Giannelia a...@airsensing.com (416) 203-9858 _______________________________________________ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
