Electricity Went Out On One Wall

In simple terms the outlets that are not working may be daisy chained.

Electricity went out on one wall.

We ve all experienced power outages. Your house s electrical system uses several parallel circuits to distribute electricity separately to various parts of the house. The reason why most wall sockets and wall outlets are not working. However in some cases the breaker or fuse may seem fine and even if you reset the circuit breaker the circuit is still dead.

My tv lights ceiling fan aquarium. It fell over and landed on the floor and the cord ripped from the wall. Your outlets may also be wired this way. This resulted in a small spark and instantly all the power in my room went out.

I checked a power strip inside and looked at the breakers and i have not found a tripped breaker. First time on site but not the last. 1 that room has two or more circuits for outlets lights and one has a broken wire or the breaker tripped out on one circuit that dead one. Maybe during a storm or maybe that time you had eighteen cords running off that one socket oops or maybe totally randomly and for seemingly no reason at all.

Thanks for your electrical repair question dwayne. If you ve noticed a switch on the wall that didn t seem to go to anything it could very well control a half hot outlet flip this switch and then try the outlet again. Outlets lost power electrical question why is it that the outlets on one side of the wall have lost power while the other still has power. Basically i lost electricity in one room.

When one went out they all went out. Electricity is off but circuit breaker isn t tripped when the lights go out in one or more rooms or in a series of electrical outlets the culprit is sometimes a circuit breaker or a fuse has blown. Think of it like the old christmas lights. This could be causing the other outlets to also have no power.

Tonight i stepped inside the front door of my house and flipped the light switch for the front porch lights and they failed come on and the front wall which supplies power to an interior room lost power. One circuit can go out without affecting others. One circuit can go out without affecting others. In all seriousness you did not have too many things on at one time otherwise you would have tripped the circuit breaker.

Thanks for your electrical troubleshooting question gary. I had my computer plugged into the wall it was sitting on my desk. The rest of the house does have electricity. If part of your house loses electricity you may not have a serious electrical problem.

This wall stretches from the kitchen to the living room. You must determine which outlet is the first in the row to not be working. Well gary that s what happens when you decide to clean the house.
