Can't speak for Jack, but I know that, if I want the power off at the
outlet, I short the wires.
My own breaker panel isn't so well marked that I know for sure which breaker
is for which outlet/fixture; and I sure wouldn't trust anyone else's panel
to be properly marked.
In fact, I just found out yesterday that one of the breakers marked "House
Conv" handles the outlet for the refrigerator & microwave, but not the one
right next to it.
Besides, how else do you test a breaker in the field ?
