39.48, -82.98 | Not an electrician but do know a thing or two about electricity. A GFCI can save a life, so I would like to know whether the refrigerator has a ground fault before going further. Call an electrician if you are not comfortable doing this yourself.
I am assuming you have a GFCI breaker, going to receptacles both inside and outside. Not too crazy about that. I think current code requires most receptacles in a kitchen to be GFCI -- if they are within six feet of water AND easily accessed. An outlet behind the fridge is not easily accessed. So yes, you can use a non-GFCI outlet for your fridge...but make sure it is not throwing a ground fault.
I would have the outdoor receptacles on their own (GFCI) circuit. | |
