When a circuit trips in your home or business, this is a safeguard to prevent electrical fires. If you constantly deal with circuits tripping, this is a sign that you need to call an electrician. Allowing this problem to continue means you’re putting your property in jeopardy. The 3 most common reasons for circuits tripping are:

1. Overloaded circuit: This happens when too much energy is being drawn from the same circuit. Don’t allow power-heavy devices on the same circuit. If you have an older home, you might need to add more circuits to meet your power needs.
2. Short circuit: This happens when too much heat is generated. A bad switch, cord, plug, improper wiring, loose connections, damaged wires or even a lightning strike can cause a short circuit. Call a licensed electrician to repair a short circuit.
3. Ground fault: When a hot wire comes in contact with a grounding wire it can cause a ground fault. Usually, damaged equipment causes a ground fault.
