Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power from outlets or USB ports. | Circuit breaker tripped; loose wiring connection; faulty device. | Check and reset the circuit breaker. Verify wiring connections (if qualified). Test with another device. If problem persists, consult an electrician. |
