Narrative:
Aircraft X called in with a chime intermittently ringing. I went out to aircraft and tested all lavatory smoke detectors in lavatories. Tested seatbelt automatic slat switch. Tested flight attendant call lights -- all normal. Went to lunch. Another a&P was assigned to PA that circuit breaker popped. The FAA check airman told him to have me report.
