Why Would a Circuit Breaker Trip All the Time?

Circuit breakers are designed to do two things. 1. They limit the amount of amperage flowing from the main circuit board to the outlets in your house. 2. They provide a fail-safe solution in case more amperage than what they’re designed to allow is drawn. If a circuit breaker is failing in either of its intended purposes then it is a safety hazard and should be replaced immediately.
