Does the garage have a separate breaker box or fuse box inside? Is there a separate power feed for the garage? In the 70's and 80's some cities were allowing aluminum wiring INSIDE residences. If the wire from the main fuse/breaker panel is aluminum there is a real possibility that you might have a bad connection between the fuse box or breaker panel and the outlets in the garage.
The outside breaker box is typically located near the main electrical panel, but outside the building or house.
The fuse box in a house is typically located in the basement, utility room, garage, or near the main electrical panel. It is a metal box that contains fuses or circuit breakers to control the flow of electricity in the house.
Breaker box
Yes you do. The detached garage will either be fed with a single circuit or a sub panel. The wire feeding the garage will need to be protected and that is the purpose of the breaker (disconnect). The breaker size will be determined by the size of the wire that is used on this circuit.
first run electric cable to garage,10-3 with ground is best,you will have to put at least a 30 amp box in garage more if running 220. if just lights and power tools on 110 then you will be fine!! in box connect red wire to proper lug in box and black wire to proper lug. run 14-2 to lghts!! you can use 12-2 also it is a heavier cable!! at house breaker box run the 10-3 cable to its own breaker in box,at least a 20amp breaker!! red and black wires go to breaker and white goes to neutral bar connect ground to ground bar or neutral bar also!! use a double pole breaker in main box.
Breaker boxes do not have fuses associated with them unless the main disconnect is independent from the breaker box. If that is the case both fuses have to be the same in the main disconnect that protects the breaker box.
Go out to your breaker box (usually in the garage or in the basement), open the cover and look down at all the switches. One or more of them has been switched off. Flip it back to its on position.
