You can avoid tripping a breaker by distributing the devices across multiple circuits.
When trying to find the breaker panel, locate a gray metal door mounted on the wall, usually in the basement, garage, utility room or outside. Once you open the panel door, there are three main components: the Main Breaker which controls the power to the entire house, which is usually a large switch at the top, the Individual Breakers which are smaller switches labeled with room names or appliances, and the Amperage ratings which are commonly 15A, 20A, and 30A for circuits and 100-200A for the main breaker. A breaker trips when it detects an overload or short circuit. To reset it safely turn off sensitive electronics to prevent power surges when you restore the power, then you locate the tripped breaker, switch it to the off position to reset then switch it back on to check if power is restored. When upgrading or replacing a breaker, always shut off the main breaker before working inside the panel, use a voltage checker to confirm that there is no voltage, label the circuits, and then install the upgrades.
