Your Questions. Our Answers

Frequently Asked Questions About Circuit Breaker Repair

You will find answers to all of your most common Electrical Services related questions located here.

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

Common causes include overloaded circuits, short circuits, ground faults, or failing breakers. JLM Electric performs thorough diagnostics to identify the exact cause and provide lasting solutions for Queen Creek homes.

Can I replace a circuit breaker myself?

Circuit breaker replacement requires working in the main electrical panel with live power present. For safety and code compliance, always use licensed electricians for breaker work. JLM Electric provides fast, affordable service in Queen Creek.

How long do circuit breakers last?

Quality circuit breakers typically last 20-30 years with proper maintenance. However, frequent tripping, overheating, or manufacturer defects can shorten lifespan. We recommend professional inspection of breakers over 15 years old.

What's the difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker?

Fuses are one-time-use devices that must be replaced when blown, while circuit breakers can be reset. Modern Queen Creek homes use breakers for safety and convenience. If you still have fuses, consider upgrading to breakers.

Do you repair Federal Pacific or Zinsco breakers?

Due to safety recalls and fire hazards, we recommend complete replacement of Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels rather than individual breaker repairs. JLM Electric provides safe, modern replacements protecting your Queen Creek home.
