Saw something like this happen to an installer years ago. He had to run a few outlets; Well, later the house burnt down. He told me later that he thought he may have had something to with that, because he saw smoke coming out of one of the outlets, but it stopped so he didn't say anything to anyone. He is now the lead technician for a mid-sized MSO. Yea, burn a house down and get promoted.
