Why did this happen?

I went to my mum's house this morning and as I unplugged her hair-dryer (to borrow), I tripped out ALL the electricity. But, as everything went out, the kitchen lights went on ...

When I got the power switched on again, the kitchen lights went off...

Doesn't happen in my house; is that normal?

Why did this happen?

Yes, the circuit was overloaded.

Back when I was in high school, my sister and I would both be blowdrying our hair and have our t.v.s, lights, and ceiling fans on in our separate rooms. Since we were on the same circuit, it would overload and the power would go out.

Why did this happen?

If its a older home it probably happens a lot Mine does that all the time.

Why did this happen?

Yes, it is normal.

Why did this happen?

I think your mothers house needs to be checked by a qualified electrician. It seems like her circuit breaker box isn't wired correctly.

Why did this happen?

Why did this happen?

Umm... no....... thats definitely not normal. Your "mum" should get that checked out by an electrician or at least someone with some knowledge on electricity.

Why did this happen?

Women and electricity don't mix.

You need to get an electrician out there before someone gets hurt. :)

Why did this happen?

probably just a ghost

Why did this happen?

It sounds like 'circuit overload'...I'll bet you had to reset the breakers, eh? The kitchen lights came on because it was on a seperate switch and therefore did not go out. When the lights went out, you were in the dark and became aware of the fact that the lights were (already) on.

Why did this happen?

Hmmmm.

Why did this happen?

Sounds like poltergeist to me!

Why did this happen?

It sounds like a bad circuit at the circuit breaker needs to be repaired by an electrician.

Why did this happen?

You have a poltergeist in your home who is playing mind tricks on you. Beware.

Why did this happen?

Perhaps it's old wiring or a bad circuit... although it sounds like electric wiring possession to me. Call a priest.

Why did this happen?

It is just your electric personality shining through my dear.

Why did this happen?
