Electrifying!

Perhaps a good word to describe a performance, but not one you want to experience in your home. 
While working on a current project, our electrician found major safety issues with the homes panel box , wiring and outlets. He said "you could weld (high use of power) with some of these breakers, and they would not blow" . If you have any electric concerns, be sure to have a licensed electrician do an inspection before you have a shocking experience.
