Re: for those of us who use multimeters (we all should) ...
We had an electricain very badly burned because he had replaced the special fuse in his meter with a normal fuse. Set the meter to amps when it should have been volts and it blew up.

He was off work for about 6 months.

Always be very careful around electricity.
