Circuit breakers can go bad for various reasons, but the older your home is, the more likely you will face circuit breaker issues and will need a repair or replacement.
Most older electrical systems are not equipped to adequately supply power to modern electronics and appliances. Water damage and fraying wires may also cause problems to electrical panels. When a circuit draws more current than it can handle, the breaker senses extra heat and shuts off power flow.
Your panel may need repairs if:
A circuit breaker will not reset
A circuit breaker trips frequently or repeatedly
A circuit breaker feels hot
There is smoke or a burning smell coming from the panel
There is a frayed or melted wire inside the panel
You hear a sizzling or a popping sound coming from the panel’
