Try to find a proper electrical supply outlet near you.  Their
	prices will often be considerably better than chain hardware stores or
	DIY centres, have better quality materials, have wider variety
	including the "odd" stuff, and have people behind the counter that
	know what you're talking about.  Cultivate friendly knowledgeable
	sales people.  They'll give you much valuable information.

My daughter dropped a small necklace behind her dresser. The necklace crossed a plug terminal and shorted the receptacle.

I bought a new receptacle and installed the same. I still have no power  I suspect there could be a bigger problem,this is aluminum wiring.

I've killed the breaker and call an electrician but am curious as to what happened.P.s. there is a dimmer switch on the same circuit.
