What are the usual causes of a circuit breaker trip?

Plus icon - black

An overloaded circuit causes your circuit breaker to trip. You'll probably notice this when you add a new high-powered appliance or install a new light fixture. Other common culprits include space heaters, microwaves, hairdryers, dishwashers, irons, vacuum cleaners, toasters and air conditioners.

What’s GFCI outlet wiring?

Plus icon - black

GFCI stands for Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupters. A GFCI outlet is a type of electrical plug that helps keep you safe from electrical shocks, especially in places with water like bathrooms and kitchens.  

You’ve seen them before. They look like regular three-pronged outlets. But did you know they're mini-circuit breakers? They can shut off current to an outlet in as fast as 1/40 of a second.  

GFCI wiring has a built-in sensor that quickly cuts power if it senses a problem. If electricity is escaping where it shouldn't be. You can test it by pushing a button on the front. If it turns off, it's working correctly.  

GFCI outlets are critical for safety and should be installed by an electrician to make sure they work the right way.  

Why does my home need power surge protection?

Plus icon - black

A lightning strike to a nearby power line may trigger a surge to enter your home. It could also be something as simple as turning on the vacuum cleaner, which can trigger a surge as well. Anything that’s plugged in can get “fried,” whether it’s turned on or off. Avoid such a costly home mishap with a quality surge protector system.

Surge protection helps keep your appliances and electronics working reliably. You can avoid early replacement costs with a well-optimized wiring system that prevents power surges.  

Almost every home in Alberta has expensive electronic equipment inside: TVs, A/C units, water heaters, refrigerators, entertainment equipment, hot tubs, computers, and more. All these items easily add up to thousands of dollars, and all are vulnerable to power surges.  

You can save money and protect your valuable items in your home with a panel surge protector.
