    Those things remind me of the time our plant maintenance man was wiring a machine to the three phase bus overhead, with 3 (4 ?-whatever) conductor cable. As soon as he plugged it in, BAM, it threw the breaker. It took him more than a little while to notice a small bulge in the middle of the cable. Doing a bit of surgery on the cable,he found all of the conductors bared and twisted together, then covered with the rubber like the rest of the cable. I guess that was some guy’s idea of a joke at the cable factory.
