Hey everyone
I'm trying to connect my suraielec wifi pool timer. Problem is it keeps tripping the breaker immediately. Any advice is appreciated. When I bypass the timer everything else works perfectly. I attached a pic of the breaker and the current wiring.

Fan,

Normally, when you use a GFCI breaker the hot wire leaves the breaker goes to the hot side of the load and then neutral side of the load gets connected back to the GFCI breaker and not the Neutral bus bar.

I can't really tell how you have your breaker connected in your pics. It looks like you have the bare copper wire connected to the GFCI's neutral, but I can't really tell for sure.

Thanks,

Jim R.
