The electrician was baffled. He found out that the station switched the transformer one notch at that hour, but why would that cause the GFCI to trigger nobody could imagine. Finally he found the crossover, and the thing stopped happening.

GFCIs are touchy.  When someone complains of a failing GFCI, I immediately
tell them to recheck ALL of the connections as this tends to cause
"false" trips.

On that same place, a cable entered a certain tube with one colour and exited a different colour.
 Turned out that the installation had been done by three different electricians, each not knowing what the previous one intended or did.

Here, any "splice" has to be done in a junction box.  And, all junction
boxes must be accessible.  So, the wire entering a conduit at one end
WILL be the wire exiting at the other.
