When I tried to plug in my hair dryer this morning the GFCI in my bathroom buzzed whenever the prongs touched the outlet. There was also a small puff of smoke. The GFCI didn't trip. Anything to worry about?
Should she have plugged her hair dryer into a "dead socket"? It almost seems as if the grounding wire was doing it's job because of something else? What causes a "live socket?"
