I am still waiting for a picture with a burnt rat that chewed through a wire. I always hear about that. Ohh, “yeah a rat chewed through the wire”... Or “there was a dead rat in there”. Haha, but seriously, these wiring jobs are a 60Hz nightmare, can you say ppbbzzzzzzzz. I can just hear the snap crackle pop when they turn on the amps.
