Breaker for AC Tripping

I have a split system & Air Handler. Any idea why the breaker keeps tripping?

Bad compressor or capacitor most likely

While less likely than the previous examples given, circuit breakers do get old and can get weak. This is called "nuisance tripping." Try replacing the breaker.
