What else can I help you with?
When a home circuit breaker opens the lights in some rooms go off but the lights in some rooms stay on. Explain why.?
The circuit breakers in a panelboard feed separate circuits. The lights that stay on are on a different circuit than the ones that go off. To fine the circuit that feeds the lights that stay on, go to the panelboard and turn off the breakers one by one until the lights go out. This is the circuit that feeds that circuit of lights. Remember that lights and receptacles can be on the same circuit together.
Is a humming sound at the circuit breaker a concern?
A humming sound at the circuit breaker can indicate loose wiring or a malfunctioning breaker. It is advisable to have a qualified electrician inspect the breaker to ensure it is functioning properly and to prevent any potential hazards.
Open circuit and short circuit test?
In an open circuit test, a voltage source is connected to the device under test, and the current is measured, while in a short circuit test, the device is connected across a voltage source with negligible impedance, and the current is measured. These tests are used to determine the voltage-current characteristics, efficiency, and losses of a device, such as a transformer.
How can you install two - two amp breaker boxes from one meter can?
The smallest size in breaker panels is 30 amps and the smallest breakers that can be installed into a 30 amp panel are15 amps. If more info is needed go to the discussion page tab and explain what you are trying to do.
Can 105 amp be hooked too one breaker pole?
No, a standard residential breaker is typically rated at 15-20 amps in the US. A 105 amp load would require a specialized breaker or multiple breakers to handle the current. It is not safe to connect a 105 amp load to a standard single pole breaker designed for lower amperage.

The exterior garage lights have always been on All garage switches work but none turn these off How do you find the off switch?
Find out what circuit the lights are on by shutting off breakers until the lights go out. Find the wire that connects to that breaker. If there is no wallboard or insulation in the garage , follow the circuit to the light. If there is a switch then it will have to be somewhere in that circuit and before the light fixture. If your situation is different from this, please use the discussion page and explain.

How much does a GFI circuit breaker cost?
They don't cost that much, and it also depends on where you are. I suggest you approach your electrician or electrical supplier, explain to him what you need it for and then he will then tell you the cost. Installation will be extra, as you can guess.
