I spent some time today trying to identify the breakers at the main panel of my 1927 home. After a shock or two and some blown breakers :( , I found that two kitchen outlets are using a shared neutral. One outlet is for the microwave, the other is an 'extra' outlet. Looks like the neutral is split from the breaker with a branch running to each outlet.
Is this correct, or should I try and pull a new neutral?
Here's a pic, hope it makes sense:
