It’s been 2 days, And still can’t find why the Circuit keeps Tripping #electrician #troubleshooting

What happens here

After two days of troubleshooting, the electrician confirms that the problem is not with the circuit breaker itself, but rather an issue somewhere within the house's internal wiring. He uses an outlet tester to confirm the lack of power at multiple outlets. During the investigation, he found one particular outlet with an unusual wiring configuration: three neutral wires and three hot wires improperly joined with wire nuts. These were separated and re-wired correctly.

Goal: Locate and identify the source of the electrical fault within the house's wiring.
