Receptacle tester shows hot & ground reversed. No wiring changes have been made since home new 25 years ago. Plugged in iron and power went out but didn't flip breaker. All outlets in room also out. Later all worked, plugged in iron and all went out, and breaker still not flipped. Iron works fine elsewhere. Replaced breaker and outlet. Still nothing. Outlet tester shows hot & ground reversed for all outlets on circuit. Pigtail tester shows neutral and hot both hot for all outlets on circuit. There is also a light switch and ceiling fan on circuit. Suggestions appreciated. Thanks.
