This was the circuit for our client’s refrigerator.

The previous “electrician” had forgotten to put the branch circuit on the output terminal of the circuit breaker and tighten it down.
The wire was just leaning against the terminal in order to to make the connection. This small bit of arcing is from picking up the defrost timer. The compressor and fan would produce more arcing.
Fortunately, no food was lost in this case and nothing was badly burned. This was repaired to restore refrigerator reliability and it’s not a good thing to have arcing in the distribution panel.
To avoid unnecessary expenses and bad endings, is advisable to hire an LEC to have your electrical work done. Saving a few dollars could result in remorse.

DIY of the day.

This is part of a switch leg for front porch lighting.

This could cause damage to life and property.

The 150 year old house. A perfect starter home!
A new circuit for laundry machines was installed. AFCI & GFCI protected receptacles, as a laundry tub will be installed within 5’ of the receptacles. No need to drag the connection cord across the dryer vent any more.
A dedicated circuit for sump pump was installed. The sump pump installer had tapped an existing circuit to provide power for the sump pump, which is not a great idea. Loss of the sump pump due to nuisance tripping could turn the basement into a swimming pool.
The laundry area is all set to go with an ESA permitted legal installation!
