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. |

Anybody who's ever stuck a knife in a hot toaster to get the bread out knows what can happen in there. --- End quote --- This is a thing? I mean to say, there are people out there who are foolish enough to do such a thing? --- End quote --- 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. |

Lots of profit to be made implementing the new regs, which is a good thing, right? :popcorn: |
