I have heard that it could be the compressor or something else with the
A/C unit or it could be a bad breaker. Since the unit is only 4 years
old I am thinking that it is unlikely that the compressor has gone bad.
If it were a bad breaker wouldn't it trip as soon as the unit turned
on?
Any thoughts?


While it could be either, I'd call the AC guy. The electrician will say
"yep, overloaded, pay me $75 and call the AC guy" but the AC guy can
determine why it is tripping the breaker and fix it.
