Hi,
I have a plug that was fine till the other night when the washing machine was started, Then the power went off to the whole room. I checked for a tripped breaker and found none that were tripped... I checked the plug and when I touched the tester to the neutral and the ground it read 120 v. Inside the box is where the power comes in for the room. I guess my question is if the plug went bad would that cause a hot neutral or do you think there could be a wire issue>
