The wires going to outlets are typically referred to as "branch circuit conductors." These wires connect the outlet to the electrical panel, supplying power to the outlet for devices and appliances. Common types of wire used for this purpose include NM (non-metallic) cable and conduit wiring, which usually consist of a hot wire, a neutral wire, and a ground wire.
Is the GFCI wired correctly. Voltage in goes to LINE. Voltage out goes to LOAD. Ground wires connect together and connected to ground on GFCI. All screws tight. If all this is correct and you have no loose wires on any of the outlets and no wires are shorted out in any of the outlets then more than likely you have a defective GFCI. Replace it with another one. I get bad ones all the time.
In a house, usually all the outlets in a room are on one breaker or fuse. Each thing plugged into those outlets consumes some electrical power. This is a number rated in Watts. In this case, the more Watts something consumes, the higher the current is (measured in Amps) in the wires that connect the outlets to the main power in the breaker box. The current in power circuit must be limited for safety reasons. The wires in the walls can only handle a certain amount of current safely. If too much current flows the wires can become extremely hot, possibly starting a fire.
Yes, the plastic in a wall outlet can over time get brittle. I recommend you replace any outlets and switches that are over 20 years old. I recommend you replace them and wire them by wrapping the wires around the screws and not by inserting the wires in the spring tension holes on the back of the outlets. An outlet that is subject to repeated plug ins and unplugging of a device should be replaced every 10 years.
On an electrical schematic it designates that the wires are all connected together. It is called a connection point.
I believe you've managed to turn wires inside out. (conducting) wires are covered in insulating plastic. And it is done this way to prevent electrical energy from going where it is not wanted, such as into you.
Wires just connect electricity cords/outlets.

To wire a room with lights and outlets, you will need to plan the layout, install electrical boxes, run wires from the circuit breaker to the outlets and lights, connect the wires to the outlets and light fixtures, and test the connections to ensure they are working properly. It is recommended to consult a licensed electrician for safety and compliance with building codes.
To properly wire two outlets in one box, you will need to connect the incoming power source to both outlets using pigtail wires. Connect the black wires to the brass screws, the white wires to the silver screws, and the ground wires to the green screw or grounding screw. Make sure to follow the proper wiring diagram and use wire nuts to secure the connections.
To wire a bedroom for electrical outlets and lighting fixtures, you will need to plan the layout, install a circuit breaker panel, run wires from the panel to outlets and fixtures, connect the wires to the outlets and fixtures, and test the connections to ensure they are working properly. It is recommended to hire a licensed electrician for this task to ensure safety and compliance with building codes.
To wire 2 outlets together safely and efficiently, first turn off the power to the circuit. Connect the black wires to the brass screws, white wires to the silver screws, and ground wires to the green screw. Use wire nuts to secure the connections and cover with electrical tape. Test the outlets before turning the power back on.
To install electrical outlets in series, you will need to connect the wires from one outlet to the next in a daisy-chain fashion. Start by turning off the power to the circuit, then connect the black (hot) wires, white (neutral) wires, and green or bare (ground) wires from one outlet to the next. Make sure to use proper wire connectors and secure all connections tightly. Test the outlets before use to ensure they are working properly and safely.

When running outlets in series, it is common practice to use the outlet as a coupler by connecting the incoming and outgoing wires directly to the outlet. This allows for a continuous flow of power between outlets in the series. Pigtail connections are used when branching off to another circuit or device without affecting the rest of the outlets in the series.
The device itself could be bad, or have a blown fuse
To properly wire a GFCI outlet in series with other outlets, you should connect the line wires to the line terminals on the GFCI outlet and then connect the load wires to the load terminals on the GFCI outlet. This will protect all outlets downstream from the GFCI outlet. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and consult a professional if needed.
