Usually, the answer is that you should not reset the circuit breaker unless you know the reason and it does not pose a danger.The circuit breaker is there to protect you, your family, and your home.If the circuit breaker trips, it means that the current flowing through the circuit breaker is greater than its tripping current.Therefore, you must be able to absolutely determine what causes overcurrent to pass through the circuit breaker.For example, if a 15 ampere circuit breaker trips, it means that you have more than 15 amperes of current flowing through the circuit breaker.Now, if you happen to insert multiple devices into the circuit and know that the total consumption of these devices is greater than 15 amperes, only then can you reduce the load on the circuit (unplug the power) and reset the circuit breaker - only once.

However, most trips of circuit breakers cannot be easily isolated.Like everything else, wiring also ages.The ability of insulators to resist voltage is decreasing.Ultimately, the insulation layer ruptures and becomes brittle - an electrical short circuit.An electrical short circuit can cause many electrons to quickly pass through the insulation layer and degrade.This is very similar to a pipeline leak - ultimately it will flood your house.Only in this case, the short circuited wires will heat up and may burn down your house.The circuit breaker is your safety valve.However, there is another inherent and more concealed danger.The lifespan of a circuit breaker is like the wiring in your home.For aging circuit breakers, they do not trip prematurely, but rather do not trip at all.Old wires and circuit breakers are the root cause of catastrophic failures and fires.In hot desert environments, the service life of circuit breakers is about 25 years.Afterwards, they must be replaced.Replacing circuit breakers is called 'distribution panel repair'.The moral of all of this is that if you cannot be absolutely certain that you accidentally overloaded the circuit and corrected the overload, do not reset the circuit breaker.Call Weikewei Technology for a security assessment.We will ensure that your circuit breaker is functioning properly.If there are any issues, we can correct any incorrect wiring or faulty circuit breakers.
