It now makes me wonder if I had had an arc fault interrupter circuit breaker in my electric panel, if it would have tripped.
Probably yes. Also, if you were to fart within 10 feet of the breaker panel, the arc fault breaker would smell it and trip. If you run an electric motor with brushes, trip. GMRS walkie-talkie, trip. Fluorescent light with a starter, trip. If it's Thursday they've been known to trip.
Arc fault breakers need less of an excuse to trip than than most Grateful Dead fans.
LOL. I haven't had the pleasure of working with or near them, I just knew they existed. Something tells me that you aren't very fond of them. ;)
