Default Home electrical circuit dead

"Blattus Slafaly" wrote


The dead circuit services the bathroom (with one gfci outlet), a
bedroom and one outdoor gfci outlet.


Change all your GFCI's to standard outlets. Nothing ****es me off more
than playing hunt and seek to find the blown GFCI. Breakers belong in
the damn panel where you can find them, not all over the house. This is
the stupidest idea I have ever seen. If you need GFCI, put a GFCI
breaker in the damn distribution panel.


Sorry, but codes require all outlets in bathrooms be GFCI, as well as all
outdoor ones be proper outdoor type. But you are right, probably one of the
GFCI's popped badly. I'm suprised replacing them didnt fix it though. Must
be something at the main panel or sub panel?
