In this Recharge Rescue episode, I travel to Middletown, Connecticut, to investigate and replace a 100-amp circuit that caused a small fire in a junction box in Matt's garage. By sheer luck, Matt went into his garage just as the fire started and was able to put it out with a fire extinguisher. Upon inspection, we found multiple problems that led to this near disaster.
