Can anyone recommend an electrician? I have a circuit that keeps blowing and I don't know why. Thanks.

@SAM1096 : We use Trapp Electric. Obvious silly question, but have you eliminated everything plugged into that circuit? Assuming this is a basic circuit and not one with a hardwired appliance (stove, dryer,...), have you inspected the outlets on that circuit. Start upstream and work your way back towards the panel with a basic $15 plug-in type outlet tester to see if you can narrow down the fault. I'm on an online electrical forum and have been surprised at the number of failed outlets reported on there; by past overloading, cheap manufacturing and faulty installation over time.

@SAM1096 : Might help save some time on the service call &/or tackle it yourself if you are comfortable with doing it. Hopefully it is not the circuit breaker. I don't like going into the panel myself; that's usually when I call an electrician.
