Hey all!
I figured this is as good a place to ask as any:
A couple of days ago I noticed the pool pump wasn't running. I checked the main panel and it turns out the circuit breaker popped.
So I figure, maybe it was a freak thing.. had a storm the night before, who knows. So I reset it. All is good. The next day it only runs for part of the day, circuit popped again. So, it starts, runs fine.. then at some point, it will pop..maybe an hour later, maybe the next day.
I know I shouldn't be resetting it because a popped breaker is a sign of a problem.
Looks like all the wires in the timer have a good connection, connections in the pump are internal.
Could the circuit breaker actually go bad? (something in the main panel) Any recommendation on how to find the problem?
(Keep in mind that I have a meter but I'm no electrician )
THX for any tips!
