How to reset a Circuit breaker?

     It's possible that your circuit breaker tripped if your mixer grinder abruptly stopped whirling, your thermostat stopped operating, or some of your lights went off. A power outage in a particular area of your home or office is one of the most obvious symptoms that a circuit breaker has tripped. Resetting the circuit breaker is not a difficult process. But it is essential to address the underlying reason for tripping. Check out for any severe underlying electrical connection problems.

How to reset circuit breaker.

Following steps describe the procedure to reset circuit breaker.

1. Find out the circuit breaker box.

    Look inside the DB box on your electrical panel for a row of switches. These switches will all be various types of circuit breakers. If you are unable to locate such a box, your circuit breaker may still function if you utilize a fuse box rather than the service box. Then, the subsequent procedures are not applicable. To repair the fuse blow, utilize a different procedure.

2. Turn off the load appliance.

    Electric appliances and lights connected to the damaged breaker should be turned off. Prior to repairing the circuit breaker, carry it out. The sudden current of restored power poses a risk of device damage.

3. Spot tripped breaker.

    Recall the row of breakers from the first step? In contrast to other switches that are switched on, one of those breakers' levers will be in the off position. The circuit that has to be reset is the one that has been turned off. Additionally, some circuit breakers feature a red or orange mark. If the circuit has been tripped, those marks may reveal it.

4. To turn on the circuit breaker.

    The circuit breaker switch, which you discovered to be off, should be turned on. You must completely turn off the button before turning it on if the switch's lever is stuck in the middle. When the light is turned on and off, the lever could make a clicking sound.

5. Checking the circuit. 

    Turn on the lights and appliances you turned off in step 2 once the power is back on. If they function properly, the problem has been solved. However, if the circuit breaker trips again when you turn on the appliances, there could be a serious electricity issue.
