Why do power switch flip when dryer is on????
and it's the outside switch!
Answers:
If it flips when you start the dryer, then you have a main problem.
If it flips after a while, it's due to the heating of the electrical wires.
You should need fuses with a higher Ampère level.

It's most likely inside ur dryer, if you can get into it with out too much trouble, look for [burnt wires or element] or maybe the motor is overheating.

more than likely it is a week breaker, usually a 50 amp, replace it.
call a licenced electrician
WARNING! most dryers I know of are 220 volts and should not be on with any other appliance! if yours is a 110v,, then you have an older house where the dryer is on the same line with other appliances and everything is drawing too much amperage.. run a seperate line for the dryer as it takes a lot to heat this thing up....you could have a fire if that breaker ever fails to "GO OFF"!
