    I'm working on some logic related to recognizing certain phrases or translations. I've tried both the Google and Microsoft translators, but question the results. Is there a corresponding word in French for trip? The translators keep giving me "voyage" even when I use it in context. My circuit breaker is tripping off... it is not going on a Caribbean cruise. :mad:

      Might not be any such word. Consider they stopped creating the ten's values at sixty, and for seventy, you needed sixty-ten. If that was a difficult stretch - expect "others". Best solution: just make something up. See if anyone notices.

        Would "déclencher" work? (trigger, start, set off)

                        Yes. A fault causes the circuit to "trip" or trigger in to an open state.

                                Exit seems a good idea for a fuse blowing! Perhaps "Dans le noir" would be more appropriate?

                                      I'm working on some logic related to recognizing certain phrases or translations. I've tried both the Google and Microsoft translators, but question the results. Is there a corresponding word in French for trip? The translators keep giving me "voyage" even when I use it in context. My circuit breaker is tripping off... it is not going on a Caribbean cruise. :mad:

                                      In French, the circuit breaker is a "disjoncteur" The proper translation would be the verb "disjoncter" But in your case, you would say something like. "Mon disjoncteur a sauté"

                                      I'd rather be phishing!

                                        I'm working on some logic related to recognizing certain phrases or translations. I've tried both the Google and Microsoft translators, but question the results. Is there a corresponding word in French for trip? The translators keep giving me "voyage" even when I use it in context. My circuit breaker is tripping off... it is not going on a Caribbean cruise. :mad:

                                        I'd go with "coupé" (cut) for a trip-switch triggering.

                                          That's because the use of "Trip" in the context you have means "Failed". In english it's almost a slang phrase. What you probably want it "Le circuit a échoué" - The circuit has failed

                                          If it's not broken, fix it until it is. Everything makes sense in someone's mind. Ya can't fix stupid.
