Air Conditioner Tripped the Main Breaker After Being Cleaned?

Recently I transferred a window AC from my aunt's room to my room. Before I decided to put it in my room I decided to clean it with the jet water, then after drying it out, we placed it in my room. When switching it on, the whole house tripped.

We suspect it didn't get dry enough so the next day we dried it outside, and after placing it in place the same problem occurred. My question is, if that window air conditioner still can be used or it's a piece of scrap metal now. Please help, thank you.

What part did you get wet? If you got the inside or the electrical components wet, then yes, it is now unsafe to use.

I had something like that happen too, I would just have the air conditioner on its own circuit and then you won't have any more trouble.
