Does it have a resettable circuit breaker for overload? Manual vaguely states, "on select models and offered as a separate feature on other models."

Sorry for the delayed response. No...the unit I purchased does not. I'm using it to turn lights on and off...so it wasn't something I looked for.

Juan, I haven't had any problems with mine except on occasion it has indicated two circuit breakers as noted in the comment from E. Allen. This hasn't been a problem for me as I am not doing commercial work any more but friends/family/ volunteer type work. I would most likely buy this tester again. It beats the one I used when I was in business but that one was old technology. I think you will be satisfied with it.

Don't know - the unit i purchased did not have that switch - but works great!

I'm not positive but this socket remembers is setting after power outage; don't recall ever having a power outage during it's use.As a test, what I would do is flip the circuit breaker, wait a minute and turn the breaker back on. We may both learn something.Sorry, that's the best I could do.

no reset you need to check the trigger switch or get someone that works on electrical stuff to check it for you

I don't know, the unit stopped operating. No light, no fan, circuit breaker is not popped so I am perplexed.

Hmm That does sound like a serious issue! I cannot say that I have had that problem yet and I have 8 units installed in my house. It sounds to me like the unit is placed on a circuit that is beyond the recommended load which can easily happen. In other words, this issue sounds like people are using the units on circuits that were already poorly wired. Just my thoughts.

The one that worked for 5 months and then started giving me error message is the old design. I ordered a new one and it does have an on/off switch. I saw on the package that it is supposed to have 1 yr warrenty but there is no contact info for it.

If you are unable to immediately reset, then either the breaker is bad or the condition that caused it to trip has not yet been resolved. (I.e. there may be an electrical short that has not been repaired.)

Yes, this power strip does have a reset switch. This surge protecter was recommended by my IT guy.

I have been fortunate enough not to have the surge protector do it's intended job. I just looked at the unit and noticed that it does not have a reset, test like a ground fault circuit interrupter. I have a hunch that if the alarm is triggered un-plugging and re-plugging the unit will reset it. The device is cheap enough to protect your expensive appliances, I would have no problem buying another one if there was a problem with the actual device.Hope this helps.JerryO

I have not had this problem and do not know if there is a reset button. Have you checked with the manufacturer? Let me know how this will be resolved. Good luck. It is a good machine and very well worth the money.

Hi Gary. No it doesn't. At least I don't think so - I've returned it and whenever the one I had cut off, it did not restart on its own.

No! The side socket is only for appliances to plug into, it has no reset features. What probably happened is the side socket has shorted out and must be replaced.

The exact model is on a sticker well inside the unit and believe it or not the number is not listed in the Owners manual. I didn't have time to open it up before leaving for work this morning but I'll look tonight and if someone else hasn't already given you the answer, I'll answer it then. Well, I took the outside cover and the inside protection cover off and did not see either of the numbers that you gave. However, there is a rather large Disconnect Switch right there in front of the box on the right hand side. So the switch that came with mine definitely has the service disconnect installed in it. Let me know if you want me to email you a picture.

I'm not 100% sure, but beleive the breaker is on the reel. I know it is NOT on the plug. That said, I have never had to reset the breaker, but have blown the 20 amp house breaker. . . Go Figger . . .

I have not had any problems with throwing a breaker. I live in a mobile home. just try to keep any other major appliance plugged into a separate circuit to avoid overloading.
