Renters called, outlets in master bath, master bedroom, and kitchen are
not working. These rooms are all located right next to each other. I
am assuming they are probably on the same breaker. He says they checked
the breakers which I take to mean none are tripped. I am thinking it is

I think Hoovie's "ultimate 300SD" is that color.
If he really wants to sell it he should contact BAT:

If you have aluminum wiring you must have spring loaded contact points, at
least in Indiana. Lot of house fires back in the late 50's when aluminum wire
became popular, my father investigated some. The spring contacts prevent loose
wires under fluctuating load.
Do not over-tighten copper
Probably a bad GFCI outlet, or check to see if the circuit has a GFCI or
AFCI breaker, they can go bad too, and the AFCIs are sensitive to the
neutral and ground connections.
Buy one of those little lighted testers you plug in, they are cheap and
will show you what the fault might be.

1.) If the house was built in 2004 it doesn’t have AL wire.
2.) Open and then close the breaker. Sometimes you’ll get a “nuisance trip)
that doesn’t display the trip flag in the little window.
3.) If it’s on a circuit with a GFCI, check to see what receptacles are
downstream of the GFCI
Windows 7 was acceptable in that everything we used it for was more or less
stable (depending on application, some of the custom instrument software was
easily broken by updates).
Windows 10 bites. Slow, buggy, gets massive updates weekly (so did they

Open the breaker box and check the wire. If it is aluminum wire, it has
done what aluminum wire in houses does after time. The contact at the crimp
screw has expanded and contracted with each time electrical load in applied
[wire heats up, expands, cools down, contracts.] The wire slowly loses
I figured if there was a tripped or bad GFCI outlet upstream from the
others it could knock them out. Since bathroom and kitchen outlets are
involved I figured that could be a possibility.
What is this lighted tester you speak of?

Breakers do go bad sometimes. But first check by pushing the breaker to the
full off position and then back on. Many times a tripped breaker will
appear to still be on, at least visually.

I will check that out. House was built in 04 so not sure if it has copper or
aluminum. I would also think it is one circuit. Does not seem likely that
multiple circuits would develop the same issue at the same time.

I’m wondering if their refrigerator is tripping one of the GFCI outlets like
what happened at our house. They didn’t mention anything about refrigerator not
working though.

This happens to me all the time with tenants. The breakers appear ok but they
are in fact tripped.

Maybe this is the lighted tester:

It's a crude device but handy because it's small and checks polarity
(ground-neutral-hot) in addition to just indicating if power is on.
I also like those non-contact voltage

You need one which also tests GFCI outlets like:
Sometimes a breaker looks like it’s not tripped when in fact it is. If they
haven’t already, ask them to flip the breaker to off and back to on.

They are idiots, I would assume they did that, but I am using it as a
good reason to check on things.
