What is an electrical breaker, and what does it do?

This prevents overheating wires, which can cause fires. If a breaker trips, it means there was an overload or a short circuit. Knowing how to reset a breaker is useful, but persistent tripping indicates a problem that needs professional attention. We can help you find a pro to inspect it.
