its common on houses now to have those breakers that have 2 hots and 1 shared neutral/120v. I have 2 of them in my mains. I have heard that if you ever install an off grid inverter and tie it in to your mains that you have to do away with these breakers. Since its hard to run new wire ,you would have to disconnect at least 1 wire from each breaker to keep from ever overloading the neutral which is a no go with an inverter.Thats what I was told. That would leave some outlets dead. what would you do to rewire those outlets if you didnt want to tear the walls open..??

Hi there, In my son’s bedroom there was a light fixture and we wanted to replace it with the ceiling fan with light. So I removed the light fixture and took a few photos. Unfortunately I found that the box was only good for light fixtures so I replaced the box that will support the ceiling fan. Originally 4 wires were in the box. Each one of those wires has – ground, white and black. I took photos but unfortunately they didn’t come out good. The holes through which the wires entered into the box changed when I replaced the box. Originally 3 white wires were connected using a nut, 3 black wires were connected using another nut and one white and one black cable was used to connect the light fixture. My ceiling fan has 4 cables – ground, white, black and blue (for light). I have only one switch for both fan and light so I’m connecting black from outlet box to black and blue from ceiling fan as per the ceiling fan manual. When I connect all 4 black wires together and 4 white wires together, all the lights in other rooms work. First I thought if I connect 3 white together and 3 black together and use the remaining white and black for ceiling fan, everything will work. Well fan itself and lights in next room do not work. Any suggestions from experts on which wires I should connect as I’m lost. I’ve a non-contact Klein no-contact voltage tester. Thanks in advance, Joe Green
