No power to two kitchen outlets. Reset breaker.

Had a storm come through-lost power several times which tripped 3 or 4 breakers. All but one reset. Replaced the breaker but still no power to two kitchen outlets. I have 120VAC to the breaker. Any ideas?

MOD# C880-6402990 ser IMF0216838 Type 30S My issue is I had my microwave plugged into the extra outlet. I turned on the microwave and then it seems like it tripped something in the stove.

Check the circuit breaker for the house. It might be tripped. Sometimes a breaker will trip without moving the handle to indicate a trip. Reset the breaker several times.

How do I locate circuit breaker for kitchen power outlets

All houses have a fuze or breaker box. Check basement, closets, or utility room. Usually have a grey metal door. Find it and check if breaker is tripped or fuze is blown. If not the case there may be a GFCI outlet that is feeding those outlets that needs to be reset. They are usually a square outlet some have a light on them but all should have a reset button. If you find one to be tripped press the rest button in the middle of the outlet and you should be good to go.

Home electrical

Hi Sammy,
It sounds like there is a direct short on the circuit. Before going any further, check other outlets on this circuit and make sure they do not have anything plugged in that is not expected and does not work. Check OUTSIDE your home, basement, garage, etc. as these locations require GFI protection - and may be fed from the bathroom outlet. After removing devices that are plugged into the circuit, attempt a reset of the breaker once more.
It is not likely that the circuit breaker has failed (but is a possibility). The outlet in the bathroom is probably a GFI type. You can determine this if it has "Test" and "Reset" buttons on it. You should be able to press the Reset button in fully even with power off. After resetting, you can attempt the resetting the circuit breaker as you have described above. If it stays on, try pressing the "Test" button on the outlet. Doing so should trip power to the outlet (and causing the "Reset" button to pop out) but leave the circuit breaker "On". If the breaker also trips, the GFI outlet is suspect and might need to be replaced.
At this point, a qualified electrician should be consulted to locate and clear the wiring fault.

Need to reset circuit breaker

Hi,

  • 1 Turn off the light switches and unplug appliances in the room that has lost power.
  • 2 Find your circuit breaker box and open the cover.
  • 3 Locate the tripped breaker. Circuit breakers are small, usually horizontal switches labeled by the areas of the house they serve (for example, "kitchen," "bathroom" and so on). The tripped circuit breaker will be in the "off" position or in a middle position between "on" and "off."
  • 4 Reset the breaker by moving it to the full "off" position and then back to "on." That may clear an overload and return power to the room. If the breaker re-trips, you may have too many lamps and appliances plugged into the circuit; a damaged cord or plug; a short circuit in a receptacle, switch or fixture; or faulty wiring.
  • 5 Identify and correct the malfunction before resetting the breaker.

    Emerson tv lost the ability to power on after a storm

    I would probably look at the internal fuse that protects the power supply inside the tv. The storm probably sent a power surge through your outlet, your breaker may not always work correctly, especially if the breaker is old. The fuse should be inline with the hot side of the AC power to the power supply circuit. You would have to open up the tv, but you would be able to spot the fuse very easily. Fuses are cheap, but getting to it may be a problem

    Had a storm, blew all the breakers got the breakers re-set but now the coffee maker won't even start

    Hi, W/D here.
    Try something else in the outlet. Most kitchens have ground fault outlet circuits, so you may have a tripped outlet breaker. These type of circuits can come from the panel through a ground fault circuit breaker, or they can go to the first outlet on a run of outlets. If the first outlet is ground fault protected, the others on that same run are protected as well. If another device will work in your coffeemaker outlet, the coffeemaker is probably dead. If another device will not work in the outlet, and your coffeemaker will work in a known, good outlet, you'll need to look at all of the outlets in your kitchen and bathrooms for an outlet with a "test" and a "reset" button on it. If your outlet is on that circuit, you will need to push the reset button to restore power to your coffeemaker's outlet.
    Best regards, --W/D--

    3-pole 60 Amp Circuit Breaker is tripped and won't reset.

    When this breaker tripped, it did not go fully to off. Push the breaker all the way off and then all the way to on. It should be fine. If not manually push it to full off once again and then back on. If both attempts fail the breaker will have to be replaced. good luck.
