If a double pole GFI, the kind you install in the main breaker panel, is rated at 30 amps, is that 30 amps for EACH leg or 30 amps total, 15 amps for each leg?
Thanks.
Thanks.

A 220 GFCI monitors both hots and the neutral looking for a zero sum. If the neutral isn't used, it still looks for a zero sum on the hots.
