How To Reset A Circuit Breaker
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.

Why DIY Kitchen Renovation Wiring Is A Bad Idea
While it may be tempting to follow the DIY trend after watching a few videos on Youtube or Facebook, following suit isn’t the wisest decision. Though the DIYers online may appear to have enough skill to restore their electrical systems or install new ones, it may be hard for you to judge if their efforts were safe and reliable. Additionally, they don’t always tell you about the research that went into the task. There’s also the possibility that the electrical codes they follow are different from those in your locality.
