Either way it shouldn't start a fire, just blow the circuit. But I'm no electrician!
I agree Russ, you would think it would blow the circuit, but it didn't! Our neighbors said it was hot and smoke coming out. They are talking it up with the builder. Thank God they were both home and awake.

I didn't know there was such a device. Good to know.
