There is a simple device called a GFCI Receptacle Tester (note tester below) that will tell you if there is something wrong with your system such as;

  • A loose Wire
  • Incorrect Wiring
  • A bad Connection
  • Bad Ground

Before you start checking for solution make sure you turn your breaker off!

Has this happened to you?

If so the first thing you need to do is unplug the appliances on the breaker. When the breaker trips the switch is placed in neutral position, so what you new to do is turn the switch all the way off and then back on. Don’t not just turn the switch back on from the neutral position turn it all the way off and then back on.
