What to Do When a Circuit Breaker Is Tripped?
If an inspection of your electrical panel reveals a breaker that is tripped, it could mean that the circuit it protects is overloaded or that there is faulty wiring somewhere in the circuit. It could also mean that something plugged or wired into the circuit, perhaps an air conditioner or a fan, is broken, or the breaker itself may be faulty. Whichever is the case, it’s best to follow a logical strategy to correct the situation.
