    Open netural?
    I have an electrical outlet that blew and caused a chain reaction across three outlets, without tripping the breaker. I have replaced all three outlets, but the diagnosis plug says that all three outlets read open neutral. Please advise. I have turned off the breaker until I can get the problem resolved.
