Did you check with meter on continuity? And if so does it supposed to get any reading?

If you get continuity or any reading to ground its grounded sometimes multimeter will have a reading but won't make the beeping sound like it does with continuity

So if you’ve got short to ground does that mean your compressor is bad or what..? Just what I’ve heard, compressor bad will cause dead short

So a bad compressor won't necessarily cause a dead short it can be bad and just the condenser fan will come on without tripping a breaker but when it's shorted to ground it means one or more of the windings are grounding out internally. If it has high resistance between the windings it can also trip the breaker

@@Rpm2332 so what would you recommend when diagnosing breaker flipping, new capacitor and contactor

First I would see why it's tripping the breaker contactor and capacitor isn't normally the reason but it is possible. Do you have a multimeter?

I would replace contactor and capicator and also installing a hard start kit.@nicktaylor4807

@alanmentor3537 see that would most likely work if it was pulling locked rotor amps not when it's shorted to ground
