Last night our power went out in our bedroom and part of the downstairs. I checked the electrical panel but the breaker wasn’t tripped.

I had no clue what it could be but some google searching revealed that if a GFI outlet has tripped then it might throw everything on the same circuit off.

Well, I just installed one last year behind a couch downstairs and sure enough it was tripped. So if you have this same problem, check all your GFI outlets.
