I just installed my new Whirlpool WED8500S Duet dryer. When I start it, within the first 5-10 minutes, it will trip the breaker. When I reset the breaker, it will finish out the cycle and not trip again. Does anyone know how I can fix this myself... or even begin to investigate what the problem is?

Thanks!

I would check on all the outlet wiring connection , and the spec on the dryer...

It sounds to me like the dryer is more powerful than the breaker its relying on. You can't just plug it in to another outlet, because dryers have their own unique plugs. Contact an electrician and let them know what's going on, you might have to replace the breaker.
