A couple of us guys were trying to figure out a 15a 120V circuit why it wasn t working. Maybe someone here could help.
This receptical is in a home 14 - 2 bx , outlet stops working . One tests finds power to hot and box only, no power between hot to neutral . if neutral is bonded at the panel this should be why there is power to hot to box. Now a question comes up that when a plug from a heater or radio is connected to this outlet it should trip the breaker because the bx is the egc of the cable. This does not happen, tried to find the open neutral and could not, checked panel and outlet boxes. Any help would be welcomed. I find I don t know what I should.
