Meet Tanner Henderson, the electrical apprentice at Hoover Electric. Tanner started working for us in 2019 when he did Co-op through Dryden High School. He fit in so well with our group that we hired him for a summer position, and then when he finished high school, we signed him up as an apprentice in July of 2020.

People often think circuit breakers are just a flip of the switch and something you need not be concerned with. However, when a breaker trips (or shuts off), it’s usually because too many things were running on one circuit simultaneously, and it became overloaded. However, if the breaker trips for no apparent reason, there may be a short circuit, which is a much bigger problem. The latter is usually best left to an electrician to figure out.
