So I have a house that mainly runs on a variety of series circuits maintained by a breaker box. My problem being that a major appliance is broken, and thus was disconnected in order for it to not cause problems. This has shut down the circuit - and half my house - , and while the rest is in working order, I do not know how I would reconnect the wires in the correct manner in order for the circuit to run properly. I've looked elsewhere for answers, but it just gives me physics-based assistance. Any help in figuring this out would be greatly appreciated, as living in Texas w/out an AC is living hell.
