What is a circuit breaker panel schedule, and why do I need one?
A circuit breaker panel schedule is simply a list of which receptacles and lights are controlled by each circuit breaker. They are often posted on the inside of the panel cover. They are most often either blank or scribbled over and illegible. It is worth making a complete, easy to read list: it will save you time and energy when a circuit breaker trips, and it will save an electrician time-and you money. You probably have better things to do with your money than pay an electrician to map out the circuits in your house. And it puts most electricians in a better mood.
