We had a bad electrical storm yesterday and when I got home several
breakers were tripped. My 6 month ol hot tub which is on the back
porch and was not on. The breaker next to it is off and if I try to
switch it on it wont stay on. It won't power the tub. The breaker
out by the meter box is on and when I switch it off I can then switch
the one by the hot tub on and it will stay on untill I switch the one
on the meter box back on then it trips the one by the tub. Does this
sound like a bad breaker or a short somewhere in my hot tub?
Everything is 6 months old.

Could be either.

How can I tell? I need to know to call an electrician or the hot tub
people. I was leaning to it being the tub.
