maybe the easiest question ever asked here. I have a lighting panel with three Q120 20A breakers. the top two go to two lighting circuits, the bottom one to an outlet. The lights aren't working, and, when I measure the output of the two lighting breakers, I get 47Volts. Continuity through the closed breaker on the bench is almost one ohm. The third breaker output is 120V.
I suppose the easiest thing to do is to get a new $5 breaker from HDepot and see what the output is when installed, but I'm curious about the 47V. What am I ignorant of, or not understanding?
