I'm helping a past client troubleshoot an electrical problem and am wondering if anyone has any advice.
Shared 3+1 leaves the panel for the DW and disposal. At both appliances there is a single 2+1 coming from the wall. So, where's the junction? J-boxes must remain accessible, right? Is there a standard place or way an electrician might wire this? Could the box be behind the cabinets (I'm thinking this wouldn't be "accessible" but who knows).
Problem is there is no neutral continuity at the DW but there is at the Disposal so it seems very likely it's disconnected at the junction in question. This is the middle floor of a newer condo unit so I can't imagine the box is above or below.
I'm stumped (easily done sometimes).
