Yes, what I mostly meant by upstream effects is that flipping the breaker
obviously turns off a lot of other outlets in Sudo and possibly breaks
others' projects.
I don't think a space heater was running, but I wouldn't swear to it.

I suspect part of the problem is that the Bocce ball

that people have been using space heaters. If most of the outlets are on a
single breaker, it doesn't take too much extra to trip a breaker if you
have a heater running...

If people are overloading the circuit breakers,

tripping at lower than designed currents, this will not help.
Before buying anything you should figure out why the breakers are
tripping.

Killer. Adam - since I obviously lack the
technical literacy to scope
eBay for the properly right stuff, might this be something you'd be willing
to look for on our behalf - i.e., pass on links to some Adam-approved eBay
isolation transformers)?
If Sudo does not have the funds to hand to acquire these, depending on
the cost I will make a request of Omni Commons to purchase. As I see this
as something that will help us pass our Fire Life & Safety inspection for
the building..

It would be better to get something like this on
eBay, because large,
ie several kilowatt transformers typically can be had for pennies on the
dollar there. Low voltage transformers really don't go bad so the age
doesn't matter.
