I have a 20 amp ark fault circuit breaker that is tripping. It turned off half the lightning in the house none of the outlets. The break does not trip Instantly it trips after 5 to 20 minutes. I check the amperage on the load with my meter and the current was low the circuit was only drawing about one amp. And no new work was done in the house. How can I trouble shoot this
