I suppose you Brits do everything prim and proper like unplugging  your toasters before probing and shutting your car engines off before changing the fan belt?

I've done lots of dangerous things in my time. Some were for pay, some for duty, some for fun, and some out of ignorance. I can honestly say I've never done anything dangerous for toast.

Understandable. Anybody who's ever stuck a knife in a hot toaster to get the bread out knows what can happen in there.

This is a thing? I mean to say, there are people out there who are foolish enough to do such a thing?

I'm willing to bet there are more people killed by toasters than sharks every year!

I think it was an American who asked.

Not too surprised by by people getting a poke from their appliances.  I was surprised they were concerned about an arc flash.   I wonder if there's a special group that consider ANY spark an arc flash event.  Maybe the same group that always discusses safety here?  That would explain a lot.   

That can't be it because it seems many are not from the United States.

"arc fault protection" is the latest buzz-phrase in electrical installation here. Lots of profit to be made implementing the new regs, which is a good thing, right?   :popcorn:
