As Robert said, it could be one of the auto reset circuit breakers, especially if it is a soft "click/clunk" vs a loud "CLICK/CLUNK". Those things are nothing more than a cheap piece of bi-metal with a contact on the end. It heats up and the metal bends and opens the contact. Then cools and the metal bends the other way closing that contact. The closing would be the clunk as the metal contacts hit together. The more opening and closing, the more the contacts burn, and the more often it trips.
