If you blew a fuse in your house but the breaker does not show a blown fuse you still have no power to half your house what next?
If it is half the house, that implies the main breaker or the line coming in. Sometimes, double breakers will trip one of them and not the other. It looks like it is still on. Try flipping the breaker off and back on. If you feel comfortable doing it, open up the panel and check each breaker to see if current is getting through them. Just a two prong test light will tell you this. Start on the main, it may be that one of the lines coming in is dead. Looking at the question, you blew a fuse but the breaker does not show a blown fuse. You shouldn't have both in the same circuit. If you have screw in fuses there should be 2 large Buss fuses at the top of the panel. One of these could be blown. These have to be checked with a tester, there is no way to tell just by looking.

You think somebody is using your electric supply?
You would not be the first person to have someone else tap into your electric power. If you are in a detached house, it is fairly easy to find out. Turn off everything in the house. Leave the circuit breakers on. Have someone stand outside by the meter. See if the meter still runs. (You may need to turn off the breaker to the hot water.) If the meter is still running when nothing in the house is turned on, you can call the power company to come out and check.
Why don't your lights in your home come on what now?
Check your breaker panel or fuse box, if they are not tripped or blown that's not the problem. If there has been a storm, look to see if power lines to your house are down. DO NOT GET NEAR THEM! If they are you need to call an electrician and the power company. If your power lines are OK, look and see if your neighbors have power. Look all around you because you and your neighbor next door may be on a separate circuit than the people across the street. If they have power you still need to call an electrician. If their power is out it is a general thing so be patient, call the power company and relax. You also need to find some candles and a flashlight for when it gets dark.
