How Samsung Dryers Are Built
Electric models need a 240V outlet on a circuit with two halves, and one half can trip on its own so the dryer runs but gives no heat. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dryer loses power or won't turn on

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.
