How’s to identify if 2 plugs are on the same circuit? (This is for power line adapters)

Title explains it.

Your house should be on one main circuit and as long as there is power everything should work.

The simplest solution would be to disconnect all the fuses in the house then turn on only one fuse.  Plug something in outlets... if you have electricity on both outlets, they're one same circuit, only one which has fuse working.

What country are you in?

 

If you are in the US, then you likely have split-phase 240V (meaning that you have lines coming into your house where 120V is supplied on one phase, then 120V is supplied on the other phase, and if you connect something to both phases it effectively receives 240V.

 

The phases are alternating on your breaker box going down. So the first row is Phase A, the second row is Phase B, and so on. You'll notice that your 240V devices, like a water heater, stove, or clothes dryer, take up two rows on one side - this is how it uses both phases.

 

For powerline, what matters is that the units be on the same phase. Determine which breakers have the outlets you want to use. They are on the same phase if they are both even or both odd (e.g. Row 3 and Row 7, or Row 8 and Row 10).

 

If they aren't on the same phase, you might still be able to make a connection but at a much slower speed. Powerline units that are listed as "AV2" are able to communicate via the ground pin as well as the hot and neutral. These can often connect on breakers that are different phases.

I attachtted the image of the breaker thin below I believe the 2 rooms which they would connected to would be  entry-live and fam-bed hall
