This is a huge problem mostly south of 466A. Apparently these breakers are either a defective lot, or engineered in such a way as to be sensitive to ham radio signals. I don't know the deal, but the manufacturer, the electrical contractors and home warranty have arranged to have them replaced free of charge. I'm not down there yet, but my homewatch person called yesterday and 9 of my breakers had tripped for the 3rd week in a row.
