What should I do first when a circuit breaker trips in my home?

First, stop using the affected circuit and note which lights or appliances were on when it tripped. A tripped breaker can signal overload, improper grounding, or faulty wiring, which can lead to fires or shock if ignored. If one careful reset does not hold, leave the breaker off and schedule professional troubleshooting. Our Denver electricians follow a clear process: assessment and estimate, customized solutions, installation or repair, then inspection and testing. We also handle permit and code compliance for panel repairs or replacements.
