When breakers get old, they can get weak. Replace breaker with same
amperage, and see if problem continues.

This has happened for the second time in last One week . Both these
days we had rain and both these adys we went to basement and did some
work (usually we donot frequent basement). The breaker that trip is
associated with Sump Pump, a few lights in Basement.

The first time it tripped , I on'ed it again an Sump pump drained out
water from basement for around 45 minutes (with gaps varying from 1
minutes to subsequently 5 minutes). When it tripped the second time,
no activity was noticed on sump pump, and it continues to work for
now.

I donot know at this stage, as to why is the breaker tripping. Never
happended before.

Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks.
