If a breaker trips in your Germantown home, start by unplugging devices on that circuit. This reduces the load when you reset the switch.
Open the panel door and look for a breaker positioned between ON and OFF. Push it fully to OFF before flipping it back to ON.
If the breaker won’t stay on or trips repeatedly, call our Germantown electricians for help. There may be a wiring issue or overloaded circuit.
Never force a stuck breaker. Doing so could damage the panel or create a fire hazard. When in doubt, let a professional inspect your system.
