I have had a power line in the past that tripped my electrical circuit breakers - has this been an issue for anyone?

Hi, I have buy NetGear Powerline for two diferent places, I have the first one for at least two years and I lately buy another one 3 months ago without any problems. It works excelent

I have had a pair of Netgear XAVB101's since 2009 and they have NEVER tripped a circuit breaker. I just recently purchased two pair of XAVB1201's (which amazingly are also compatible with my still in use 101's) and I have STILL not seen any circuit breakers trip. The only thing that I can say critical about either device is the newer 1201's are "green" and they go dormant when my TV is off. Then the TV has to reconnect. So I use the 101's for the TV and the 1201's for other devices that don't turn off on a regular basis. THESE THINGS ARE GREAT!

I have never had an issue with this. Both ends of the unit are on separate 20a circuits and each circuit with everything attached areprobably operating between 50-75% capacity.

Yes. Absolutely, and if anyone wants to argue differently, I'll be happy to forward the pictures of my burnt out Bestek and the charred internal control board. Nothing but a laptop drawing current when this happened. If the manufacturer is reading this, experienced a control board fire in the vicinity of capacitors 2 & 14, and Diodes 6,7,8,9. Yes, my breaker tripped at the box, but not before the damage, and it was anything but overloaded. The fire literally shot out of the *grounding receptacle* (bursting capacitor maybe?), which burned a hole in my sleeve and another on my thumb. There's a good chance your fire insurance is invalidated by using non UL listed products -and as I discovered today, for good reason. I've permanently retired all three of mine and won't be looking back.

Go to Netgear's website and download the Powerline Utility software. It can help you diagnose connection issues, and as other have suggested set them up first in one room and get them working before moving to different circuits.

I had that happen a few times too. You have to unplug and replug at the wall outlet.

Michael, did you get the problem solved? I have the same issue and was told to try a Siemens breaker.

I would check to see if on of the breakers has tripped or if one of the fuses has blown.

If the breaker trips then the element is defective. The thermostat module may be bad. Masterbuilt customer service is pretty reasonable so give them a call. Also try a different outlet perhaps your ground is bad. Good luck!

No, mine is running great on a regular 110 circuit. I'm not sure what the breaker amperage is for that particular circuit, but I've never had trouble tripping circuits while running this dust collector.

I haven't found one on mine, but I was having similar issues back when it was raining heavily in the area. I had an extension cord used, so I put a zip lock bag around (with poked holes) around the connection, then zip tied the holes off, and tapes around them with electrical tape. That helped my problem. I'm, obviously, not an electrician.

I found that plugging the unit into a power strip on the same outlet as the cable box was a problem. A different electrical outlet solved the issue.

Sounds like you tripped a circuit breaker at your electrical panel. These units can require their own fuse breaker because of the power they need.

I would call tech support. Not great phone manners, but informative. I would highly recommend a surge protector. I replaced 4 circuit boards in 5 years. $$$

I have a the same situation almost every week. I identified that the voltage variation cuts the connection and it has to be restarted. I had this problem with other acess point brand. We have to deal with it.

Are you saying you bought this same heater and the breaker trips? Because that is what is happening to us with this new heater. My husband says he would not recommend this unit. I know the cost will be at least double, if not triple, but you really should call a professional.

I installed mine about a year ago after a major lightning surge caused major danage to most of my house hard-wired low voltage equipment. There have been no incidents since then.

I've used these units for years and never experienced this condition. I'm not an electrical engineer, but something is definitely wrong. The circuit you are plugging into may have an open ground. You can plug in an inexpensive circuit tester to test your line before contacting Farm Innovators. These heaters have to operate in a tough environment and I've seen they go for years.

This hasn't happened to me, maybe your power or negative source came loose. Check those connections .
