Some of the outlets in my house stopped working. Outlets on
individual walls in different rooms work while others don't. They are
associated with different fuses, but the fuses are okay. I double
checked them by replacing them anyway and affected outlets still don't
work. Any idea what would cause this?


It could be that you have an open neutral on an Edison circuit. Check to see
if the hot leg is good at the "dead" outlets. If so, look for a common
location outlet where the neutral splits off, possibly in a back stabbed
outlet.
