Hey Guys!
We bought an older house (made in '72) and I am switching out the beige outlets/light switches to white. Some outlets are setup with a power switch for the top plug,some aren't.
Initially I changed out the outlets without breaking the tabs on the hot side caused all outlets to be on in room A regardless of if the power switch was on/off and room Bs dimable light stopped working. I went back and broke the tabs off the 3 that had red/blk. Now the 3 top outlets that I broke the tabs don't work and room Bs dimable light still doesn't work.
