Some years ago after a minor explosion due to a short-circuit, I discovered that the fuse-box contained half a dozen strands of 5A fuse-wire. Looking more closely, the downstairs lighting circuit was trying to support 20 individual lampholders with 60W bulbs, one with three 20W bulbs, and a 200W transformer for MR16s. I imagine they must all have been on at some point, blown the fuse, and some wise guy decided more than one strand of fuse wire was the solution.
Has anyone seen worse?
