Safety Tips: Handling a Tripped Circuit Breaker
Dealing with a tripped circuit breaker can be a common occurrence. Here are some safety tips on how to handle it:
- Identify the Tripped Breaker:
- Locate the tripped breaker by checking for one that has moved to the "off" position or is in a position different from the others.
- Turn Off Appliances:
- Before resetting the breaker, turn off or unplug appliances connected to the tripped circuit to prevent overload when power is restored.
- Reset the Breaker:
- Gently push the tripped breaker to the "off" position and then back to the "on" position. If it trips again immediately, it may indicate a more significant issue that requires professional attention.
- Address the Root Cause:
- If the breaker continues to trip, it's essential to identify and address the underlying issue. Contact Mr. Electric of Kirkwood for a comprehensive inspection and electrical repairs.
