<div dir="ltr">All electrical appliances (toasters, microwave, hot water maker) in the kitchen have been temporarily moved to Sudo Room, following the electrical breaker powering the upstairs & la commune tripping with increasing regularity.
<div> </div>
<div>This circuit powering the kitchen used to be on breaker #8 of the subpanel in Rise Above (west wall), now it is on #7 moved by Steve Bloom. Unfo it's now tripping way more than it een used to before, and hi-amp appliances in the kitchen such as toasters etc almost immediately trip the circuit. At this point this is a hazardous condition and an electricians are being called to try and resolve this. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please do not put any of these appliances back into the kitchen circuit until this electrical problem has been addressed. And contact me if anyone has any questions. Thank you :)</div>

<div>Best,</div>
