check. Bottom line here: install the damn GFI and get on with it. I can tell you from experience (happy story) that GFIs work with only 3 lines. My all-electric rig has a shielded cable on the thermocouple. This got in contact with the hot side and with the chassis of the brew sculpture when it was pushed in after a brew day. My brewing buddy was getting it ready for a new brew day, powered up the unit, sent juice to the PID (and heat element), and got his **** saved when the GFI immediately tripped.
install the GFI. If you buy one off Ebay or second hand, get it checked out by someone who knows their ****. period. you make homebrew because you love to, not because you want someone else to buy your kid their first beer because their dad died in some stupid accident.
I'll stop now.
