What Are Circuit Breakers?
Many homeowners aren’t quite aware of how important circuit breakers
are to the safety of your home and family. These small units detect when
electrical wiring has too much current flowing through them and cuts the
power to avoid problems or damage. Once the problem is resolved, they
can be reset. Without them, your home would be at a greater risk of fire
as a result of the overflow of electrical currents.
Can a Bad Breaker Fail But Not Trip?
It is possible to have a bad circuit breaker that will fail without tripping.
This usually happens when there are issues with the wiring within the
circuit. Typically the wiring is either exposed, loose, or in some cases
overheating. When a bad or faulty breaker fails without tripping, the
best solution is to replace the circuit breaker entirely.
