Wiring in my electric dryer
My elec dryer is wired directly into my wall breaker box(I live in a older mobile home)Twice the wire has fired coming out of box from the breaker. About 2 inches long fired wire and of course this shuts down my dryer. The first time I bought a new breaker,same ampherage 30 amps,doubled sided even .It works fine for a couple of weeks then suddenly quit again! The wire was fried all over again! What am I doing wrong ? Do I need a heavier or thicker wire ? Maybe a different amp breaker size ? Or a different color wire ? I am desperate and dense to electricity with winter coming I need my dryer! Help me please!
