Your AC trips the breaker every time? This is a serious fault — do not keep resetting.
⚠ Do not reset the breaker more than once. Each restart may compound damage to the compressor or wiring.
Electrical short circuit: A current leak in the indoor unit, outdoor unit, or connecting cable.
Compressor drawing excess current: A damaged compressor draws more than its rated current, triggering the safety breaker.
Weak start capacitor: Causes a high current surge at startup that trips the breaker immediately.
Trips immediately: Short circuit or capacitor. Trips after 10-15 min: Compressor overheating.
Yes. An old or undersized breaker may trip at normal load. A technician measures actual current draw to determine the cause.
With proper electrical diagnostic equipment, 20-40 minutes to locate the short.
