Old house? Ha!

We rented an old house and tried to find a breaker to fix an attic fan. We flipped each breaker trying to find the circuit and, even running through them a few times, just frickin' couldn't. The circuit always stayed hot. We figured they missed the circuit on the upgrade and it wasn't protected - yikes!

After asking a couple knowledgeable friends, we started doing them in pairs (very tedious process!) and found the pair.

We called in an electrician to figure out where in the house the cross was. Several hundred dollars later (billed to our rather decent landlord), we traced it to spaghetti in a junction box.
