Why does a 20 amp breaker blow when it is only hooked up to a 100 watt bulb a small pump for a fish pond and a household freezer?
Either there is something drawing a lot more current, or the breaker is faulty. You may need to have an electrician check the breaker for you, or if you feel competent, replace the breaker with another of equal value. That would be a lot less expensive than having an electrician drop by. BUT... The startup current of a household freezer AND the "small pump" may add up to enough current that it's tripping the breaker. Read the labels and see what the actual current draw is on the pump AND on the freezer. If the total current approaches the value of the breaker it might be best to move something to a different circuit.

How do you read breaker box amps?
The main breaker will have marking indicating size of electrical service, or if it is a fuse system....the fuses will have current ratings. If it is a subpanel, it might not have a main breaker. In this case you would have to look in the panel that the feed is coming from and find the size of the breaker that is feeding it. In either case you must look for the manufacturer's label that will have the maximum current the panel can handle, make sure the breaker feeding the panel doesn't exceed this rating.

Why am I only getting 120 volts from a 30 amp breaker that should be feeding 220 volts?
I assume you have a 30 amp two pole 220 volts breaker. Check the voltage source. If the source voltage is 220V, but out let voltage is 120 then the breaker must be faulty, a high resistance or partial open circuit could have caused the reduced voltage at the breaker outlet.
What voltage should read at the outputs of a hundred amp breaker?
It depends on where the breaker is fitted. Is it installed in a panel in the US, Canada or another country which also uses the 60Hz, 120 Volts standard supply service?Or is it fitted in Europe or elsewhere using the 50Hz, 230 Volts standard?As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.The amperage of the breaker dont determine the voltage reading. If your panel is 120v every breaker regarding of amperage rating or size will still read 120v. but to answer your question as it reads... the voltage on the output should read the same voltage as the input or line side.. that is if the breaker is in the on position.
How to read a circuit breaker?
To read a circuit breaker, first locate the breaker panel in your home. Each breaker is labeled with a number or description indicating which area of the house it controls. To check if a breaker has tripped, look for one that is in the "off" position or not aligned with the others. To reset a tripped breaker, switch it to the "on" position. If the breaker continues to trip, it may indicate an electrical issue that requires professional attention.
Why does half of my house have electricity and the other half doesn't with no circuit breakers poped?
as an electrician i would first check the main breaker with a rated voltage tester for voltage i would first ckeck the meter side by placing one tester lead on one of incoming phases or wire and place second lead on the other phase or other wire. i should read 240, or 230, or 220 volts depending on where the taps are in the transformer. if not call the power company. if it does read any of them voltages i would then check the load side of the main breaker by putting my leads on one breaker and the one right below it generally every other breaker is a different phase again i should read 240 volts or close. if not the main breaker may be bad. if you know what breaker or circuit its on you could test it by placing one lead on the screw where the wire is and the other on the neutral or ground bar here you should read 120 volts or close if not breaker is bad. it maybe as easy as tightening the screw or screws so shut the breaker off first and then tighten.
How can I learn how to read a breaker box?
To learn how to read a breaker box, you can start by familiarizing yourself with the labels and symbols on the panel. Each breaker controls a specific area or appliance in your home. You can also consult the breaker box's manual or seek guidance from a professional electrician for a more in-depth understanding.

What is the process of becoming an electrician?
Read up on Electrical Fundaments. Learn this basics about electricity and what it does. Learn how to read wiring diagrams, how to shoot for power (using multimeter), and what kind of current you're looking for (Alternating Current/AC and Direct Current/DC). What you're actually looking for, an open circuit is when a wire is cut or broken and electricity isn't able to get where it needs to go, or a short circuit is when electricity is taking the easiest path and isn't going to where it should be going. Shorts can be recognized easily if you see a circuit breaker popped. Sorry for this, but you should definitely look into Electrical Fundamentals books, and then get some hands on experience from someone who knows what they are doing. Hope I helped out a little bit.
