What happens here

This video documents a professional electrician's ongoing service call to troubleshoot a persistent issue where a 15-amp circuit breaker continuously trips, causing ten outlets, representing about half of the house's electrical system, to lose power. Despite two days of investigation, including inspecting and correcting faulty wiring in one outlet, the specific cause of the tripping could not be isolated. As a last resort, the decision was made to run a new electrical line to bypass the suspected problematic sections of the existing wiring.
