I had an issue with a Square D 20amp arc fault breaker tripping in my guest bath and guest bedroom. Called out an electrician today and he did not diagnosis at all. Offered to replace the breaker in hopes that it would fix the issue. Told me it was a 50/50 shot. He wanted $350 to change the breaker. Wanted $1750 to diagnose the circuit if that didn't do the trick.
Question is: Am I totally ignorant to think that changing a breaker is not that expensive, or was this guy just bending me over dry?
And don't you usually diagnose a problem before you recommend replacing a breaker in hopes that it fixes the issue?
