prob_01
Cable melted/charred under nominal load, causing a short circuit.
Common root cause: Continuous overload above the cable's rated capacity (14 AWG) or poorly made/oxidized splices.
Step-by-step solution: 1. Immediately turn off power at the breaker. 2. Check if the connected load exceeds the cable's capacity and if splices are well-made and insulated.
💡
Pro tip: Use correctly sized circuit breakers to protect the circuit and cable from overloads.

⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation
Contact the seller or marketplace for warranty claims if, after following all safe use and installation instructions, the cable exhibits continuity failures, visible internal splices, or if the copper conductor does not match the specified gauge, resulting in overheating or melting under nominal load. Manufacturing defects that compromise product safety and functionality, not caused by misuse or improper installation, are covered under the seller's warranty and marketplace return policy.
