OK, what is the best way to trace a dead residential circuit?
One outlet in the garage is dead. No power leg registering on a non-contact device and a plug-in detector. A GFCI in the nearby downstairs bathroom is also dead. No power leg registering. Every breaker has been flipped and tested ... none power either of the outlets.
Logically, I would suspect a bad outlet or wire between the garage and the main (thinking that circuit loops to the bathroom GFCI). However, I do not see another outlet!
Thoughts? Process? Testing devices I don't have? :hide:
