🎙️ “Are AC and Lights on the Same Circuit? Here’s Why That’s a Problem!”

This episode explains why an air conditioner and lights should not share the same circuit and how that can cause issues.

It describes how breakers in a panel alternate between two legs (odd slots on one leg, even slots on the other), creating the split 120/240V arrangement that determines which loads share a leg.

As a practical fix, the host suggests checking breaker positions and, when safe and appropriate, flipping or rearranging breakers to move loads onto separate legs to avoid overloads and resolve problems.
