Long story short, a tree branch fell on my grandmother's lamp post outside and broke it. I was living in another state at the time, so she had someone she knew attempt to fix it for her.
She's not 100% on the details, but from what I can piece together there was some issue while fixing the lamp post, and since then she's been living without power in a few rooms. The biggest issue is the dining room ceiling light/fan. The living room has a couple of can lights that are out, the kitchen has some outlets that dont work, some that do, and obviously the lamp post doesnt work.
I checked the panel, and there are a few breakers flipped to the off position. Unfortunately, none of them are labeled.
Is there any reason I shouldn't just flip some breakers and see what happens? If there's a wiring issue somewhere down the line the breaker will just trip, right?
Thanks in advance!
ETA - The more I think about it, I'm thinking perhaps he flipped 'em off in anticipation of working on the lamp post, and since they're not labeled, he flipped off more than he needed to, and never put 'em back on. - OR, he didnt turn them off, sparked himself while working, and then flipped them all off...
