Okay, Thank You.
Now back in the day, probably mid '80s, had a service call from a desperate client with a problem at his home. He said a short circuit, and he tried resetting the breaker a few times.
I went thru the rooms that were dark, and had dead receptacles, and unplugged whatever. Circuit was still shorted, line to neutral w/tester. Back to the rooms, and moved the bed in the sons room away from the wall.
Suprise, here's a 2-wire cord, partially out of the receptacle outlet with a quarter across the prongs. Yes, welded to the prongs from his multi breaker resets. Checked, circuit clear, installed a new Sq D breaker, wrote a service ticket, got paid. Explained that they should keep the bed away from the wall, lucky that the bedding didn't ignite. And, please don't try resetting a breaker that is tripping.
BTW, that device to hang a cord on have a UL sticker???
