A word of caution to anyone trying some of the antics outlined for testing circuits found posted on this web site.
A general branch circuit in any home protected at 15 amps carries enough heat energy to melt metal. If there is enough energy to melt metal wonder what it would do to human tissue.

No one and I repeat no one should ever start using cords and electronic clips trying to connect live circuits to anything. This would be like playing Russian roulette but with a full cylinder minus one instead of an empty cylinder with only one round.
I would also hope that the owner and moderators of this site would try to maintain some sort of common sense safety as they monitor the post of their members. Personally I must correct such nonsense when I see it for a clear conscience for myself.
Remember this; no one controls you safety but you yourself. If it doesn’t sound safe then it probably is not.
More people die each year from a 120 volt circuit than any other voltage.
