I'll second that advice. Not to confuse you but what I meant by the pumpkin cord is that the whole pumkin cord incident caused the problem inside and something blew out so even though it's not connected I'm saying it would be my choice for what caused the problem tht it was that night with the lightning and the pumkin cord plugged in. Haha just my guess.
Hell who knows, maybe the house is just haunted. We haven't discussed that option yet. Really though, you could be right, maybe it exposed a bad junction in that receptacle?

That’s why I’m getting it fixed. Somethings fucked up. Don’t want to be that explosion
Also yeah I’ve pulled the hot from breaker and it stays on so breaker is good. Apparently.
You done good bro lol. You took it as far as you were comfortable to and maybe learned a little in the process about home wiring.
(At least you know there's an outside main breaker. I've known of homeowner's having to pay an electrician after hour rates for coming over and flipping that breaker back on)
Best of luck to you and a speedy return to your grow. :cool:

This is a handy tool if you dont want to break out the multimeter to test outlets. Very cheap

Well my situation.... I’m pretty sure my dope growing fried me lol.

anyone have any guesses before the man comes Monday? Was it the pumpkin cord? My overhead fan got rattled and wires loose from storm? Grow lights blew my room 3 up? Mice chewed something real hard? Monday hopefully we will find out....

My guess is bad outlet somewhere and you lost the neutral. -hot on everything after that. Or pigtail came loose in a box..
