What to do if circuits keep popping?

My circuits seem to pop for no reason now. They use to pop when I had two electric heaters running at the same time.

Do you have any GFI plugs in your house? If so, have you always had them? Or did this coincidentally start after you had them installed? If that is the case, the electrician may have put the GFI's on the same circuit. This will cause them to trip on a regular basis. Somewhere there is an overload occuring, and you need to find out why, otherwise your house may burn down, and while that would be tragic, it would be more so if you and your family were in the house when it happened. I would call a licensed, bonded electrician. Good luck, Susu
