Best Answer

Appliances like electric mixers use a high amperage to operate. It will be in the upper limits of the circuits breaker. The most likely scenario is that there is some other device also connected to the same circuit. The total combination is what is tripping the breaker. Another problem could be the mixer itself. These types of appliances usually use brushes to operate the motor. Check or take the mixer to an appliance repairman to check to see if the brushes have worn down and are shorting causing the breaker to trip.

Do you use Parallel circuit at homes and schools?

Every outlet in a home or a school is in parallel with every other outlet in the same home or school, and also very possibly with every outlet in several other buildings nearby. Every time you plug something into an outlet, you're connecting that thing in parallel with every other electrical thing that's plugged into any of those others.


Do I need a mixer cover if I store my mixer in the cupboard?

Probably not, if the cupboard has doors that close completely. This will prevent dust from getting to the mixer. A mixer cover is a necessity only if the mixer spends most of its time on the countertop.

Do electric wall sockets dry out?

Yes, the plastic in a wall outlet can over time get brittle. I recommend you replace any outlets and switches that are over 20 years old. I recommend you replace them and wire them by wrapping the wires around the screws and not by inserting the wires in the spring tension holes on the back of the outlets. An outlet that is subject to repeated plug ins and unplugging of a device should be replaced every 10 years.

I sand mine with an electric sander every time they get rusty.


Can you change the wall outlet to fit a 4 prong dryer outlet?

It's probably more difficult than you might expect. I'm assuming you have a NEMA 5-15R outlet, and you want to plug in a dryer that has a NEMA 14-30P plug at the end of its electric cable. The NEMA 5-15R outlet is by far the most common type of outlet in North America. It has two flat slots (hot and neutral), and a round safety ground hole. It is rated for 15 A and 125 V. On the other hand, most electric clothes dryers have an electric cable with a NEMA 14-30P plug on the end. It has two flat slots (2 hots from 2 different phases, each one 120 V from neutral, and each one rated at 30 A), an L slot (neutral), and a round safety plug. It is possible for an electrician to "fish" a electric cable carrying the necessary phases through the wall from the fuse box to that outlet, and then pull the old outlet and install a new outlet. If one merely did that last part -- pulled the old outlet and placed a new outlet -- without the proper electrical cables in the wall behind it, then the dryer would probably blow the fuse at the fusebox every time it was turned on.
