Toggle switch at the entrance activates lights over the sink and toilet.
To eliminate the toggle switch as the problem it was removed & the black
hots were connected, and good connection on the white neutral running
through the switch box was confirmed. Did the same on toggles in each of
the bathroom walk-in closets with their respective switched overhead
lights. On power restoration measured ~120-volts black-to-ground at each
disconnected receptacle, a little less (~110) on each receptacle
neutral-to-ground, but bulbs won't illuminate. Does this sound like a
loose neutral connection between the bathroom and the main panel? It's not
a main panel breaker fault as other outlets on the same circuit (outside
the bathroom) are juiced. Thanks in advance for any replies.

Khun,

The white wire should connect to the threaded part of a lamp socket. To
check the continuity of the white wire in the bathroom get a 100 ft (or so)
extension cord and plug it into a good outlet on the bathroom circuit, go to
the breaker and turn off the power to the bathroom circuit and now measure
the continuity or the resistance from the lamp socket to the extension cord.
It should be very low resistance if the white wire is ok.

the bathroom
