We have the flames right now. We do have a haze. Sounds like the homeowner preemptively turned off the fuse box here. We have one wire that appears to be hotter than the rest. Okay, you can just shut the entire panel off from inside. I appreciate it. Hot-sick is the command?

For command. We have the fuse box shut off. It looks like the one conduit that's going to the furnace was one that's extra hot. I shut up the furnace, but the line itself is still fluctuating in heat, so I don't know if there's a short inside there. We're not going to keep monitoring it with the tick, see if the position's approved.
