My home was built here in Florida in 2006 so it is fairly new. I have a 155 gallon aquarium in my dining room and hanging above the aquarium is a Geisemann metal halide light fixture containing three 250w bulbs. (Cost me $1400.00) Each light has it's own external ballast that weighs a TON. Each light has it's own plug. The dining room is on it's own 15A circuit and has nothing running in the room except the three aforementioned lights, a 1400 gallon per hour water pump, and a small 40W heater to keep the water temp consistent. Here is the issue.... I can plug the lights in one at a time waiting about 2 minutes between each one. I figure this 2 minutes lets each light achieve operating brightness and temperature. Once all three are plugged in, after literally 5 minutes, the circuit in the room blows. Over and over again this will happen. The ballasts do not hum and run very cool. The bulbs do hum slightly but I would think this is normal for an HID light. I find it difficult to believe 750W will trip a 15A breaker. I called the light manufacturer and inquired on how many amps this unit draws.... They explained 2.3A per light. That is only 6.9A for the entire fixture. This is WAY below the 15A breaker. Why would the light trip the breaker after running for 5 minutes. I would figure if it was an "overpowering" issue, the breaker would trip AS SOON as I attempt to power the unit ON. Any ideas? Help please.

Hello group While remodeling our house, we lost the cover for our Challenger Electrical Panel. Since then i have been searching everywhere and can't find one. I need the cover to get the final inspection approval. Since i don't have the cover, i don't know the model number or any information, but it has 19 brakers on it and it's 36" long. Can anyone help me out on this. I need to purchase one ASAP. My name is Mike I have attached the picture of the panel as well.
