Default Can improper wiring actually cause a fire?

Hey Doug - I think that what he meant by "common sense" was the common sense
to follow such things as electrical code, and not get all wrapped up in
"would-be-nice-if" scenarios. Keep it simple, apply the code, and use
common sense with code as your guide line.


Well, perhaps so -- but do you spend much time at alt.home.repair? Seems that
a lot of people are unaware that there even *is* an electrical code. And some
of the posts in this thread should be more than ample to show that even some
folks who know that the Code exists, don't know nearly as much about what it
says than they think they do.
