Tech: How to Diagnose and Replace Power Outlets

Writer's picture: Dr WiggoDr Wiggo

In my video "Outlets Not Working, Breaker Not Tripped. How to Diagnose and Replace Malfunctioning Receptacles" I show how to test outlets and replace outlets to trouble-shoot the problem of power outlets losing power periodically, but without tripping circuit breaker. I also demonstrate multiple electrical tools such as voltage testers, GFCI receptacle testers, and multimeters, to assist in problem determination and resolution.
