Deep Fryer: Trips the Power Source Circuit Breaker
Often times if your fryer is tripping the power source circuit breaker, this is due to the power cord or control assembly. Read our expert repair advice for information on how you can fix the problem yourself, a much faster and cheaper alternative to hiring someone else, or replacing the appliance altogether.
Power Cords
Your deep fryer may trip the circuit breaker because of an issue with the power cord. Circuit breakers can be reset when tripped, but when this problem reoccurs it can become annoying. The circuit breaker trips when an appliance is generating a significant amount of heat in a short period of time, which uses a lot of power. The cord can also trip the power source because the contacts are not providing a good connection because they are dirty or damaged. Replace your power cord with a compatible one, and simply plug it into your deep fryer to begin using it.

Assemblies
Your deep fryer may trip the power source because of an issue with the control assembly, which consists of the circuit board, thermostats, and heating element. Any of these parts could trip your power source. Sometimes the control board will have a component that shorts or grounds out, causing the breaker to trip. Usually the whole control assembly will need to be replaced if one part is faulty, as the parts are rarely sold on their own.
