Default Dead circuit, breakers all good

No idea. The breaker box isn't labeled, and the wiring is a rat's nest of
wires running here and there and everywhere. This chain could be fed or

feed
from about half of the outlets in the house. I have no clue which breaker
feeds the dead chain.


Shut off all the breakers but one and check which circuits are hot. Make
your self a circuit map and this should give you some clue as to which
breaker feeds which group of plugs. Continue until you know what goes where.

Also do not forget to look at wall switches, it is possible that one of them
is feeding the chain and someone flicked the switch that doesn't turn on a
light.
