I have lost partial power in two bedrooms. One bedroom lost outlets & the other bedroom lost outlets and lights.When I check the ground and hot I get 120v but when I check the neutral and hot I get 95v. I've changed the light switch. Checked all the outlets to make sure they are tight connections. Changed out breaker. Went up in attic and see that the two bedrooms are on same circuit. Why does the light switch work in one room but not other. Why is voltage at 95v. Thanks guys

Are the outlets wired using the "quick connect" holes in the back.

No I have wired plugs. The power started working @ 120v again today then fell off again. It's making me think I have a bad connection to the 2 rooms. The lights switch is good in the 1st room but everything after is low voltage after that. Got to be the wiring from 1 room to another. Well... guess I'm done trying. Going to call an electrician tomorrow morning. Thanks guys
