I keep getting more and more confused. Either I have a flawed understanding of AC current and/or something is messed up.
I have unhooked all the grounds from the block. When I turn the AC breaker on which is #2 after the main breaker, all the grounds now appear hot (other than incoming power)when connected to the white wire block. The white wire and ground each have a block and the black wires go through the breakers. With the breaker off, I get no power between white and the grounds. With this breaker on (all others are fine) I get power between the white and the grounds.
My thought was the white and black should have power, not the grounds....but, maybe I am wrong.
I cant imagine how, but could the breaker be the problem?
