Yes, you may need to change your circuit breaker to one that can handle the higher voltage required for a 230 volt window AC unit. It's important to have a circuit breaker that is compatible with the voltage and amperage requirements of the appliance to ensure proper function and safety.
More information is needed, maybe a lot more. Depending on its size you may need a new circuit for it. If you trip the breaker then don't use it and get a new circuit installed for it on its own breaker. You are probably talking about a window unit. If it is a simple 5000 BTU unit you can probably plug it into the nearest receptacle. If you trip the breaker then you need to run a new circuit for it. If it is much larger you may need to run a new circuit. If it is a 240 volt unit then you need a new circuit.
It is possible for a window air conditioner's compressor to trip a 15 amp GFCI circuit breaker when it cycles on due to the initial surge of current it draws. However, if this happens frequently, it may indicate an issue with the air conditioner's electrical system or the circuit breaker itself. It's advisable to have a qualified electrician check the system for any problems.
Tandem breakers, often called split breakers or double breakers, provide two separate circuits in the space of a regular sized breaker opening. Every circuit breaker panel has a limited number of circuit openings available. The problem is that when the openings are all used up and you still need to add another circuit, what do you do? You could change the electrical panel or double up circuits on a breaker, but this could place too much load on a particular circuit. So what then? The answer that many have found is a tandem breaker. This type breaker is the same size as any other breaker, but it has its difference. This breaker sports two smaller breakers built into one regular sized breaker. Each has its own breaker switch and the breaker snaps in just like a regular breaker. With this simple innovation, you can add a circuit and protect the circuit on its own dedicated line.
A dryer does not require a quick disconnect breaker. However, it is recommended to have a dedicated circuit with a proper circuit breaker for the dryer to ensure safe operation and to meet building code requirements.
You would need to change a circuits voltage if your adding a load that requires 220 when the present circuit supplies 120. If you need to do so it's pretty simple! First purchase a double pole breaker at the proper amp rating. Next find the breaker in the panel that supplies power to the circuit you wish to change to 220. Turn off the breaker and pull it out. Find the neutral for that circuit. Then double check and make sure it's the right neutral. Then check one more time. Now take the neutral and the hot wire for that circuit and connect them to the double pole breaker. install the breaker into the panel and turn it on. If you connected the right neutral you'll have 220 on that circuit. If you didn't you'll know because you'll trip the breaker.
if the the motor is good you need to check the circuit breaker because the circuit breaker might be the problem. window doesnt go bad my dude the motor goes bad check it again

To change a circuit breaker from 15 to 20 amps, you will need to first turn off the power to the circuit at the main electrical panel. Then, remove the old 15-amp breaker and replace it with a new 20-amp breaker of the same type and size. Make sure to follow all safety precautions and consult a licensed electrician if you are unsure of the process.
You need to be more specific. Do you want a contact telling you if a circuit breaker is on? If that is your question, the answer depends on the model of the breaker.
A circuit breaker must be reset to ON after a short circuit but does not need to be replaced. It depends on the type of CB. A fuse is also a circuit breaker and it needs to be replaced after a short circuit. Relayed circuit breakers have to be "picked up" after a dropout and need not be replaced as such.
Usually a 15 or 20 amp breaker is sufficient
For your electrical system, you will need a circuit breaker that matches the voltage and amperage requirements of your appliances and wiring. It is recommended to consult with a qualified electrician to determine the specific type of circuit breaker needed for your system.

A circuit breaker is designed to 'break' in a circuit if a short circuit (or other malfunction) occurs. This prevents overheating (or burn-out) of the circuit wires. In older systems, you would need to find which fuse wire has fused and replace it. In a circuit breaker, once the fault has been found and corrected, the breaker is simply switched back on.
The circuit breaker is sized to the full load amps of the motor times 250%.
If the circuit breaker is in the off position there is no need of overload protection. Overload protection monitors the load amperage, If there is no amperage through the circuit there is nothing to monitor.
Not if the GFCI breaker is supplying the circuit you are wanting to put the GFCI receptacle into.
