I am having the siding replaced on my house. If there is anyone who wants to finish the job from Hell, in Athens, please respond. Maybe two full days work. Basically will pay any sum.
Anyway, to add to the misery, numbnuts No. 2 was running his compressor off my outlets in my garage. The garage outlets and bathrooms outlets come off one GCFI breaker. Bath has GFCI outlets, garage standard outlets.
Two circuit GCFI breaker.
So Numbnuts No. 2 has been here months' completing 10 days work. (Please someone help me out of this mess.) So now all the outlets in the garage are dead, and a couple of outlets on the same circuit all dead. Never had any issue in the last 25 years.
Bathroom on same breaker is having sporadic outages, which I can fix by flipping the breaker. Minimum load on the bathroom.
Garage stats dead.
Most of the gargage circuit is in the attic (all of the junctions, nothing visible there, straight run back to the panel.
So the most obvious problem is that the GCFI has failed, dead on one pole, iffy on the other.
Any other suggestions before I start ripping stuff apart?
My "test" procedure is going to be to pull the breaker, to jump the circuit to the main buss, see if anything kicks on.
