Replacing a Circuit Breaker

If one of the circuit breakers in your electrical box continues to trip there could be a serious issue with breaker or even the panel itself. If so, only a licensed and experienced electrician will be able to diagnose the problem and make the necessary repairs. Circuit breakers are meant to protect your home from sparks and fires. They shut off the power when there is a problem sensed so that no more electricity flows to the affected appliance or outlet. This most often happens during a storm or when there is a power surge in the area of your neighborhood. Once the electrician determines that the circuit breaker needs to be replaced he will begin the project. The power will need to be cut to the entire home for the duration of the project so that there is no risk of electrocution. The breaker in question will be removed from the panel, including any wiring that is broken, burnt, or no longer works properly. The electrician will then install new wiring when replacing the circuit breaker. The wires will be connected to the breaker, the power turned back on, and the breaker activated. A test can then be performed to make sure the outlet or appliance run by the breaker works properly before the project is deemed a success.

Signs You Need Circuit Breakers Replaced

Circuit breakers can fail easily. They can also last quite a long time without having to be replaced often.
