I have two different jobs that I have had this situation. The last one: I was called out for the lights in the kit & Din Rm not working. In checking out the circuit, I found that half of the circuit still worked and the other half had a hot wire but no neutral. But when I checked the circuit I had 120v from Ground to hot; from ground to neutral I had 120v: from neutral to hot I had nothing. I checked all j-boxes and ceiling boxes and couldn't find anything wrong. Even though I had 120v from ground to neutral I connected the ground and neutral and everything worked. I realize I must of lost a neutral somewhere, but why did I have 120v from the ground to neutral wires?
