Hire an electrician.  The breaker needs to be replaced or the wiring in your house is not able to handle it.  I believe most need 2-30amp breakers.

My reliance 606 electric water heater keeps tripping the breaker. When it is reset the water gets real hot and trips again, then no hot water. Help!

You water heater most likely has a shorted heating coil, don't run it like this, call a service technician.

The water heater breaker keeps tripping and I have to reset it to get hot water. It continues to be a problem, what should I do?

Thermostat could be bad causing the breaker to trip due to it being shorted. It's either your breaker or the thermostat, more than likely the upper thermostat is bad.

After installing my titan N100 the breaker keeps tripping went from 50 amp breaker to 60 and still keeps tripping how do Isolve this problem?

You had an instant heater there before? Or a different type? Your breaker numbers don't mean anything to me, I need amps and volts, what is the amp? 30? and the volt is 220? Or are you in Europe?. And you had the four wires in there before? And you have all 4 wires on the heater line? And the heater is grounded? It should work. Unless it is not getting enough juice, but you already upped the amp. Let me know what you got.

THE INSTA HEATER KEEPS TRIPPING THE BREAKER?

Is this a new install or is this something that has just come up? If it is a new install, the amperage on the breaker is too low. You will have to call an electrician to come in and check to see if the romex wire is large enough to handle a higher amp breaker. If not, it could be that the breaker has become weak and tripps prematurely. If it's not the breaker its self then the heating element is bad on the unit.
