Thanks for your electrical wiring question Brandon. This electrical wiring question came from: Brandon, a Homeowner from San Diego, CA. Do I have some major type of electrical nightmare going on, or is it just time for all my major appliances to go out? Everything also has dedicated breakers too. The wire attached to the tanning bed is 8 gauge from the plug, but at the breaker box it is wire nutted down to 12 gauge.I should mention that she has only used the tanning bed once since the problems started happening.He checked for exposed wiring under the house and everywhere he could see. I had a friend come out who has done electrical work for a few years and he said that he did not see a problem with anything.
Now the hot water heater has started kicking the breaker, it would stay on for about 24 hours at first but now kicks almost immediately. Both the washer and dryer were replaced thinking they were a few years old and it was just time.The dryer then went out also kicking the breaker but after a day or two it fried the blower motor in the dryer. This went on for two days before it just fried the control board and the washer no longer did the spin cycle.The next day the washer started giving us problems, kicking the breaker but would work fine when we reset it. We had it moved into a storage room and wired by a professional electrician.Electrical Question: Brace yourself this is gonna be a long one about a tanning bed circuit! About three weeks my other half decided she wanted to start using her tanning bed again.
