Identifying Circuits
All breakers should be labeled. If a problem should arise, such as a smoking receptacle, you would need to know what individual circuit to shut off, without throwing the whole house into darkness.

To make a chart start by turning on all the lights in the house; turn off the number one breaker. Go through the house and check to see which lights are out. Use a small appliance such as a table lamp, to check each receptacle. Make a list as you go along. Turn the number one breaker back on and proceed with all the other breakers, doing one at a time. Make a cardboard chart with your list of information and post this chart close to the electrical panel. It is best to have two people working together to do the tests and make the chart.

The 40 amp. Breaker is usually for the stove and the 30 amp breaker is usually for the clothes dryer. 15 Amp breakers are used for the lights and average receptacles.
