I am experiencing an electrical issue at my house and need some serious help. I went to run the dryer 220v, and it just didn't want to go, thought it died. While later, watching tv, all power goes out... Uh oh, go out to the garage where the main panel is, lights in garage are working. That's when I realize it's a big uh oh. There is a 100 amp breaker that feeds the house in the main panel, it was tripped, reset it, it trips again, repeat a few more times, finally stays on. Still no dryer. Now, the well is not working, also 220v. Start fussing with the breakers in the sub panel in the house. I noticed if I shut the heater breaker off, it also shuts the lights to part of my house off, although they are on a separate breaker, big uh oh. Can someone explain what is going on, and what I need to do to fix the situation. I would really like some water, oh and it is supposed to be in the 39's tonight, so some heat would be nice too! If I had to guess, I would think it is a bad breaker, but electricity and I don't get along to well.
