When to Replace Your Circuit Breaker in Metro West

Several signs indicate your circuit breaker may need to be replaced:
  • Frequent Tripping

    If your circuit breaker frequently trips, it could be a sign of overload, short circuit, or an aging breaker that can no longer handle the electrical load.

  • Burn Marks or Smell

    Burn marks on the breaker panel or a burning smell coming from the panel could indicate overheating or arcing within the breaker, which is a serious safety hazard.

  • Hot to the Touch

    If the circuit breaker feels excessively hot to the touch, it could indicate an overload or internal problem with the breaker itself.

  • Visible Damage

    Any visible damage to the circuit breaker, such as cracks, corrosion, or loose wires, should be taken seriously and may warrant replacement.

  • Age

    Circuit breakers have a limited lifespan and may need to be replaced as they age, especially if they are over 20 years old.

  • Tripping Without Load

    If the circuit breaker trips even when there is no heavy load connected to the circuit, it may be a sign of internal damage or wear.

  • Inconsistent Power Supply

    If you notice flickering lights or inconsistent power supply from outlets on a particular circuit, it could be due to a faulty breaker.

  • Audible Buzzing or Humming

    Strange noises coming from the circuit breaker panel, such as buzzing or humming sounds, could indicate a malfunctioning breaker.
