The wires that supply power to each individual circuit of your home have a size. These wires run to breakers in the panel. The wires and breakers need to be compatible in size or you can have overheating, which you see in the picture. The wire is scorched 🔥 and breaker is melted 😳😳😳!!
An important step in our process of checking for safety hazards within the electrical system is looking at this compatibility. This is why you need a licensed inspector, we check these sorts of things. (30 amp breaker with 12 gauge wire).
