What that means for electrical work in Ossian
Most of Ossian's homes were built between the 1960s and 1990s, with half built after 1983 and fewer than one in five before 1960. It also has one of the higher shares of electric heat on this site, about a third of homes. Electric furnaces, heat pumps and baseboard heat draw a lot of current, so homes from that era with 100 or 150 amp services are the ones most likely to trip breakers in winter or need a service upgrade before adding anything new.

Why do my breakers trip more in winter?
In homes with electric heat, heat strips and baseboard heaters add a large load on cold days, and space heaters add more. A breaker that trips repeatedly is doing its job; don't replace it with a larger one. Have an electrician check the circuit and the service size.
