[QUOTE="Murkman, post: 1554949, member: 16111"] Loose connection caused that. A loose connection caused increased resistance which causes heat. Heat causes increased resistance which causes more heat. As the materials heat and cool they expand and contract which causes a looser connection. It will consume it's self. You should tighten all connections as tight as possible which will help prevent this problem. Use a properly sized screwdriver. This is a common problem. Especially in factory assembled structures. Not to say this type of problem does not happen in homes but I used to see it more commonly in mobile homes, campers, and trailers. would'nt hurt to tighten all connections in your home Not a bad idea to do all connections , breaker, neutral, grounds and if you are careful and bold enough do the main lugs.
