Circuit Breaker Repair

Tripping breakers, faulty breakers, and circuit overloads diagnosed and fixed right the first time.

A circuit breaker that keeps tripping is telling you something. It could be an overloaded circuit, a short circuit, a ground fault, or a failing breaker. Lonestar Electric Co diagnoses the root cause and fixes it properly, whether that means redistributing loads across circuits, replacing a faulty breaker, or running a new dedicated circuit. We also replace obsolete and recalled breaker brands like Federal Pacific and Zinsco that pose known fire risks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my breaker keep tripping?

The most common causes are an overloaded circuit (too many devices), a short circuit in the wiring or an appliance, or a failing breaker. We test the circuit, the breaker, and connected devices to find the actual problem.

I have a Federal Pacific panel. Should I be concerned?

Yes. Federal Pacific Stab-Lok panels have a well-documented history of breakers failing to trip during overloads, creating fire risk. We strongly recommend replacing these panels and can provide a quote during a free evaluation.
