Turn the circuit to that outlet off NOW! You have a faulty outlet...it may be the old "backstab" waiting to stab you. That is what caused the fire in our house.

Do I smell a troll? No "fire alarms"? Did he mean no smoke detectors?
Where do they build houses in 2003 with no smoke detectors? If he's
for real, first things I'd do are to turn off that circuit and get it
checked and install smoke detectors.

And the outlet smelled lie propane? Give me a break :-)

Burnt plastic and wire insulation I would understand.

They may not have been required when Pops built the house. AFAIK no code says
the homeowner/builder has to add them later - unless it's a rental property.

You are totally wrong.
At least here in Ontario. ALL residential units - owned or rented -
MUST have both working smoke detectors AMD working Co detectors.
Doesn't matter how old or how new.

Here in the Peoples Republic of NJ, AFAIK, there is no law that requires
you to put one in your existing home, if that home didn't require one
when built, you still own it, and you're not renting it out. But if
you sell it or rent it, then it needs to comply. And the OP says his
house was built in 2003. Hard to imagine anywhere in the USA where
smoke detectors were not required by then, but I guess anything is possible.
And AFAIK OP hasn't said where he is.

Older sections of Las Vegas ('50, '60, etc.) do not have detectors.
Often older families. Our local fire departments have campaigns to
collect money to buy and install them for elderly people in older
homes.

ISTR when HeyBub was around, he mentioned Harris County, Houston, TX.
did not have building codes?

So am I not totally wrong or only totally wrong in Ontario?

If I'm only wrong in Ontario does that mean I'm not totally wrong?

Does wrong need a passport to cross the border?

You do not say where you live and what codes apply to you. You said,
and I quote"AFAIK no code says the homeowner/builder has to add them

I just proved your staement wrong because Ontario code DOES require
that they not only be installed but maintained in working order.
Now you DO know.

No offence, but California has more folks than all of Canada...so not being from Canada, we tend not to remember our good neighbors to the North.
