    Power out in only 3 rooms
    The power in our bedrooms in our house keeps going out. It flips the braker switch and I keep having to go and flip it back but it still is continuing to switch off. It has happened 5 times this morning. Please help??

    Something is causing the short and this is dangerous.

    Have you called an electrician?

    Yes but they can't come for a couple of days, I was hoping there might be something I could do

    Does any particular light outlet, appliance, tool, something seem to cause the trip?

    Does it trip right away or take a while?


    Lets try to determine the cause before you reset the breaker anymore.
