If the Insignia NS-MW12SS6 microwave turned off, tripped the circuit breaker, and sparked at the outlet, it may have an electrical issue. The manual warns against disassembling the microwave due to the risk of electric shock. It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician or authorized service center for repair. Do not attempt to use or repair it yourself, as improper handling can cause serious injury or further damage.
