Hello guys,

I've got a dead circuit in my house. I tested the output of the
breaker, and it's fine. I have also done some research, which
indicates that a tripped GFI outlet could cause the problem, however,
I removed the GFI that's on the dead circuit, and there is no power
going to the GFI even. None of the lines, on that circuit, that I've
located in my house are hot.

Does anyone have some additional troubleshooting ideas?

Thanks,

Trevor

FWIW, here are some of the things I would do: 1) Turn main breaker
off. Exchange output of bad circuit with another breaker. Turn main
breaker on. If the fault travels the breaker is bad. Replace. 2) Turn
Main breaker off. Check and tighten all ground and neutral
connections. Turn main breaker on and check system functions. If
everything works you found the problem.
Beyond this things get more difficult. From what you have described
your system may no longer be code compliant , if it ever was. You may
find there are multiple wires under a single screw, or neutrals and
grounds on the same bus bar, This and other poor wiring practices will
need some journeyman help to set right. Good luck.

Phil and Joe,

Those are some excellent ideas. I will try them out in detail when I
get home, and post back my results. Thank you very much.
