after shutting off all breakers in the 120 v circuit, put a voltmeter

Volt meter? Inline? To measure current? Huh?

Yeah, stupid me. I mean multimeter.


Hmmm. You have a multi-meter that'll directly measure more than a few
milliwatts?


Mine is a digital with a ten amp fuse on the Amp function. Fluke 87 as
a matter of fact. All the professional heating and cooling guys, and
the appliance repairman, seem to have one like it.
