We had problems with our outside lamp shorting out. The lamp is part of a GFI circuit that contols all the outlets in the garage and the lanai.

Lenhardt Electric that finally fixed the problem told me that itis code in Florida that all garage outlets must be GFI protected
Correct. Outlets in the kitchen, bathrooms, garage, and outdoors must be on a GFCI protected circuit.
