Got a call from a former neighbor. She had the pool pump breaker tripping, turned out she had a bad pump.
But that's not the story.
She has a little hair do setup in her house and while I'm there she proceeds to tell me that she used to have trouble with the breakers tripping (1800W hair dryer, and 1600W dryer plugged in the general circuits receptacles).
So, a "friend" of her changed the breakers from 15A, not to 20A, but to 30A.
I just couldn't help myself and told her : "As much as you might get insulted by this, he's not your friend".
