try new microwave on different breaker.........


Hi,
M/W won't trip ordinary 15A breaker. I'd think breaker is the last


thing

to suspect under normal circumstances. The new M/W may be bad out of
box. BTW, what brand is it? How big in Wattage? 1100? 1300?



Sharp Carousel 1200 watts. I have it plugged into a different plug,
and it's working fine.

Hmm,
Then indeed the breaker may be going bad or loose connection in that
circuit(inside outlet or on the breaker itself. Ours is Panasonic 1300W
and it never did amything to the breaker.
