Once Is Enough

We understand the frustration of dealing with a circuit breaker tripping in your home. Circuit breakers provide protection against short circuits and over amperage which would otherwise cause overheated wires, melting, and possible fires. But when it becomes a frequent occurrence, it’s a sign that something is wrong. We can help.

Why Circuit Breaker Tripping Happens

  • Overloaded Circuits: Too many electrical devices drawing power from a single circuit can cause an overload, triggering the circuit breaker to trip as a safety measure.
  • Short Circuits: When a hot wire comes into contact with a neutral or ground wire, a short circuit occurs, causing the circuit breaker to trip.
  • Ground Faults: Ground faults happen when a hot wire touches a ground wire or a grounded metal component, also causing the circuit breaker to trip.

How We Fix Tripping Circuit Breakers

  • Thorough Inspections: Our licensed electricians conduct detailed inspections of your electrical system, identifying the specific cause of circuit breaker tripping and potential hazards.
  • Circuit Load Balancing: We can rebalance the electrical load on your wiring, redistributing outlets across multiple circuits to prevent overloads and improve electrical efficiency.
  • Short Circuit and Ground Fault Repairs: Our skilled electricians can promptly locate and repair any short circuits or ground faults to prevent further tripping.
  • Recommending Upgrade: If your electrical system needs more capacity to handle your demands, we offer expert upgrade recommendations for your circuit breaker panel.
