These ground faults are nto always installed correctly either or at least not so they make sense to me...for example I have them in the bathrooms on two floors....well the one in the upstairs bath tripped (I don't know why)...but the outlets/lights were out in the downstairs bath. Worked on the fuse box etc...finally looked upstairs...that one was tripped. I reset it and all the lights/outlets worked.... >Could you have a GFI wired into your bedroom circuit? GFI's are ground >fault interrupters, normal looking outlets with small push buttons to make >and break the current. They can trip off easily, being rather sensitive. >Often they are wired to control ALL the outlets in a given room. If it's >not that and you have only one circuit breaker box, I'd call an electrician. >Could be something serious (dangerous).
