A GFCI is not a mini breaker, rather a device the detects the difference between the incoming and outgoing current and the difference is between 4 to 6mA it trips. It doesn't check for over current like a breaker does. If receptacles downstream are connected to the GFCI Load they should be labeled "GFCI protected outlet".

Good to know. Thanks for the comment.
