I have a ceiling fan in the room that I use as a radio room/office. It
is wired into the overhead lights circuit in the garage which is on the
complete opposite side of the house. I found this out when my wife
bought a new more powerful microwave oven. She plugged it into the
garage circuit which has a 15A breaker. With the garage lights on, the
microwave will trip the breaker. The ceiling fan stops too. I pulled a
wire out of the outlet used for the microwave and found 14 ga. so I am
stuck with a 15A breaker.
Part of the house is wired with 12 ga and part with 14 ga. Cheap a**

It would be a /classic/ for an after the fact install of a temp

There are two possible outcomes: if the result confirms the hypothesis, then
you've made a measurement.
If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery.
