Dryer breaker tripping?

New homes built after January 2024 require GFCI protection for dryer outlets, which can make them more sensitive to tripping.  Please check that your dryer cord is wired correctly:

  • Check the cord wiring diagram on the back of the dryer.
  • It should be wired for a 4-wire cord/receptacle with no white wire connected to the ground (green) screw.
  • If there’s a white wire connected with the green ground screw, disconnect either end of the white wire and cap or electrical tape it off.
  • Please text a picture of your connection if you need assistance.  Hual Electric 850-941-8827
