Fire in the hole

 Well just before I got sick we had a major incident in the garage.breaker_meltdown Allison went into the garage to get a something from the fridge and came back in stating there was an bad smell in the garage. She kept going on about the smell enough that I stopped what I was doing and went to investigate. As soon as the door opened I could smell the unforgettable smell of an electrical fire. A scan around the garage led me to the main breaker panel which was smoking and extremely hot. I quick shutdown of the power saved the house from a major fire.

 

Notice in the picture the right main cable lug is discolored and the backplane of the breaker block is melted.

 

 

Thanks Allison
