Electrical

Your electrical panel circuit breakers are generally located in the main hallway of your unit. The main breaker that supplies electricity to your in-unit panel is located in a corridor electrical room. It is unusual for this breaker to trip. If this breaker trips your unit would be totally without power. If your unit is totally without power, please check to see if the power supply to the building has failed. If other neighbours have lost power or the emergency hall lights are on, then the building has lost power. If unable to determine the problem, please contact the Property Manager to investigate for you or to advise you.

Unit Electrical Failure: Each breaker is identified for its general purpose. In the case of electrical failure, first check this panel for a "tripped" breaker in the "off' position. To reset: push the breaker all the way "off' and then "on". Please Note: have a qualified Electrician perform any electrical work.

The hallways are equipped with emergency lighting. If the neighbourhood lights are out, a general failure has occurred. If not, check your own unit electrical panel. A tripped breaker in a circuit means that a particular line has been overloaded. Please check all plugged-in items on that circuit before resetting the breaker. The bathroom facilities are equipped with a ground fault breaker which, when resetting, has to be switched off first and then switched back on again. If it continues to trip, it may be necessary for you to call on a licensed electrician.
