Thumbs up. Thanks. I have this one specific outlet that reads 120v and on this specific outlet, when I plug the space heater in this particular outlet, it starts to cause a burning rubber/plastic smell. What steps should I take? The smell is coming from the circular breaker board
They lie and say Iβm a problem they are a nuisance to me any way they can be one of the 3 breakers with a tester section went out will replace it itβs symbolic or me and my daughter lmbo or my mom and 2 brothers they been in their th box 20 plus years
So i had a big fan with a 1/2 hp motor plugged into a 120 outlet and the fan fell over and the belt stoped the motor and it burnt the motor and then the entire living room oulets and lights dont work and the breaker never triped and ive turned it on and off and still nothing. What do i do? This would be my last strike with electricity with the landlord.
I think by listening to this video and knowing what has went on its my GF outlet in my old trailer house . The current outlet isnt even a GF outlet so I can replace that I do believe .
With the breaker off, I measured ~0.5V across the output. Shouldn’t it be 0V?
