Microwave ovens have a different issue, which I found when I upgraded my breaker board to a modern one in my house. The startup pulse gives a type of load which trips a standard A-type 10A breaker (230V). Had to get those changed to a "slow" type, but even that will trip every blue moon, and if there's something else significant on the same circuit the microwave oven will trip even so, every two weeks or so (for the record, I have several different types of microwave ovens around the house, and this happens everywhere there's a 10A circuit). The newer circuits in the house are all 16A, but the old ones (very old) are 10A. A real pain, with new TN nets and modern breakers. |
