Hi there!
My first time posting on these forums, so hello!
Long story short, the outlet in my home office loses power if both plug ins are being used. This is a new problem, as I have had the same computer in my office for several years. I have tried replacing the power bar (just in case), and to just run my computer is fine. However literally a minute or so after I plug anything else in (most recent thing was a charger for a phone) I lose power. As soon as I unplug the second thing, power comes back. However, I have had issues with this plug in the past losing power. It's not flipping the breaker though, which has me a bit concerned/confused.
My Pop is a licensed carpenter/contractor and he seems to think replacing the plug will work, but electrical is not his forte so I was wondering if anyone had any advice before I call an electrician. Nothing against calling an electrician, but it's a long weekend and I would like to fix this ASAP.
Also, the breaker panel is a new one that we had installed last year by a licensed electrician.
