New Dryer is Blowing the Circuit Breaker - HELP!
What size breaker is there now? FWIW, every domestic electirc dryer I
have ever seen called for a 30 amp breaker, and a minimum of #10 copper wire. If you already have a 30, I would try replacing it with a new 30 and see what happens. NO way should you put in a larger one. What brand of breaker is it? If it is a Federal or Zinsco, you would be better off replacing the panel. Besides being POS's, the breakers are VERY expensive. Get back with more info. Larry |
