Wiring Connections for Wall Outlets
[ad#block]Electrical Wiring: I’m trying to figure out what is wrong with some outlets.
- There are five outlets and a light on the same breaker.
- The light and one outlet work but the other four do not.
- They worked about an hour before I replaced them with new outlets.
Any help would be awesome!
