Frequently Asked Questions
Question: If one of my breakers keeps tripping, do I need an Electrician?
Answer: In most cases the answer is yes. If you are attempting to use appliances that require larger breakers and wire you will need an electrician to install the proper equipment.
Answer: This could also indicate a more serious problem: If a breaker trips for no reason at all, it could be a loose wire in the outlet or breaker, and in other cases a picture hanging nail or device may have punctured the insulation of the wiring and is a very dangerous problem.
