• If your air conditioner continues to cause its
  circuit breaker to tripwell, then you have a
  bigger problem. The trouble might be loose wiring
  in the electrical panel, or it could come from
  something wrong with the AC itself.

Dirty Outdoor Coils

• The condenser coils in the outdoor cabinet will
  struggle to release enough heat to the outside of
  the house if they have a layer of dirt and grime
  over them. This will increase the heat inside the
  air conditioning system, forcing it to work
  harder. The rise in the draw on the electrical
  system can lead to a tripped circuit breaker.

Shorted-out motors

• Motors are responsible for running the fans and
  the compressor in the AC. Like any motor, they
  can overheat and melt the insulation along their
  wires. The motor will short out, tripping a
  circuit breaker to prevent an electrical
  fire. Repair technicians will need to replace the
  shorted-out motor.

Hard-starting compressor

• A compressor is said to be hard-starting if it
  starts requiring too much electrical power to
  overcome pressure at the start of its cooling
  cycle. The drain on amps can trip the circuit
  breaker. 
• To overcome this problem, technicians will attach
  a hard-start kit to the compressor that delivers
  the necessary extra electrical power when it
  starts.
