Holding the breaker like that won’t actually do anything to stop it from tripping.
- Depends on how old it is.
- Totally. Just make sure you buy home insurance and take a video of everything in your house prior...
- Prove it?

  I just spent the last 30 minutes trying to get access to the UL 489 specification that outlines this but then I discovered just how inaccessible that stuff is wth
Alexa, play Firestarter by Prodigy.
- OpenAssistant, play "Through the Fire and Flames" by Dragonforce, please.
  
  What's OpenAssistant? It sounds interesting. Is it something I can self-host?
- Playing twisted sister on Spotify.
What am I looking at?
- A cable that's shorting itself (bad), and a fuse breaker that wont trip from a short... (even worse)
  
  .... or a burning house to be.
  
  The breaker will still trip. They trip internally.
  
  Thanks. I have never seen the last thing, what the numbers indicates?
  
  Once upon a time I went to pull an outlet splitter out of the wall, and it broke. It began shorting itself and arcing. Legit one of the most terrifying things I've experienced. I'm lucky nothing exploded and sent shrapnel into my eyes - a possibility I didn't learn about until later.
