I get hold of illogical mini-blackouts surrounded by one circuit contained by my home, I replaced the breaker and I still get hold of them Help???

I have four outlets and 1 room hurricane lantern in one circuit contained by my house. A few weeks ago i started having this little mini-blackouts, usually 1 or 2 second long, (long enough to re-set my house phone. i figure it would be a faulty breaker, but i changed it 2 times already, and i still attain them. I have a friend at the power company, and he made me turn rotten everything and unplug everything, and with his tester, said i hold no shorts in the circuit.
Sometimes they ensue during the say or sometimes surrounded by the middle of the night. I sense it because the phone after it re-sets it makes adjectives kind of noise.
Any Ideas what could be causing this...????


Answers:    Usually the power comes to an outlet and is later wired to the next outlet. The lead is probably cracked at one of the first outlets or a loose connection. It may also be at a fork box. Normally just by a hair`s breadth touching but some times breaks contact.

Kill the power. Test to make sure the power is sour. Open them all boxes and outlets to put together sure that there is a solid nouns. Make sure all the wires are "secure" and correctly bonded surrounded by the wire nuts.

Kind of a backache to troubleshoot. They make circuit tracers that you can use to support identify where circuits be in motion.
You have a loose lead somewhere between the breaker and one or all the circuits. Since you hold already changed the breaker twice it cannot be the wire connecting to the breaker (black I hope), own you checked the associated neutral telecommunication from that cable where it attaches to the nonpartisan buss? The screw could be loose there, or any roundabout such as at a switch or one of the four outlets in the room. I would turn bad the breaker and pull the covers rotten of all outlets and the switch and inspect that everything is tight including rope nuts that connect wires inside the duplex boxes.

Since the breaker is not "tripping" at least you did not say-so it was, in that would be no "short" what you have my friend is an intermittent "open" circuit. Which I would find and fix right now as it can overheat with a nouns on the circuit and cause a fire.

Probably happen at night as the flimsy and other loads are off and while current is flowing beneath load it does not fully disconnect.
