Hi everyone,
I came home this afternoon to find that the power in all of the house had gone out. I immediately went to the circuit breaker and saw that all of the little circuits had been popped out. So I put them all back to where they were supposed to be, and tried turning on the main circuit again - but it wouldn't stay on.
So I did it one by one. And it was all working fine until I put in #5 - the one for our kitchen lights & power outlets. I went and unplugged everything except for the fridge (we have a built in and I can't get to the plug because I don't know where it is!) and tried it again. Still keeps popping. I just tried our oven, and it turned on - so the Oven is not connected to that breaker.
Does anybody hav any idea what it could be? We'll call an electrician tonight when my mom gets home - but I'm just currious now. We rent, so it wouldn't be on our costs - I just hope the stuff in the fridge won't go bad!! But if it doesn't stay cold, then we'll have to take the food to my grandmother's house. Maybe the kitchen circuit is bad? This happened when nobody was in the house - so I dunno
