Default Can improper wiring actually cause a fire?

And your problem with wire nuts is precisely what?



Everything, I wouldn't even trust them on low voltage door bell wiring
let alone anything carrying mains voltage and current.

They are pure unadulterated crap.



The National Electrical Code 110.14 state:

"Splices shall be made with an approved splice cap or “wire nut”."

What do you use in place of wire nuts?
