This is an error conditon, as explained in the following text:
A GFI device CANNOT stop the flow of electricity to a dead short (hot to neutral, or hot to hot). In fact, the contacts will most likely be welded shut by the current flowing through them, and the GFI device will become useless. If YOU are in the path of the direct short, you WILL NOT be protected by the GFI.
