We built a house about 8 years ago. By code they put in the new style circuit breakers which are super sensitive and can pop easily. At first we had several breakers that would pop several times a month. That has stopped. However, our refrigerator pops its breaker several times a year and the breaker won't reset. I just grab an extension cord and plug it into a different outlet and it runs fine. But that means I can't level my refrigerator as I may need to roll it out to get access to the plug. After a few months I switch it back because I don't like the extension cord on the floor.
Today, the breaker for the big TV and the kitchen lights popped. As usual, it won't reset. Is there a way to get these things to reset faster, or do I need to wait 2 or 3 days for the damn thing to settle down? It's not windy today, so that's not the issue.
