One of our tenants had a TV plugged into an extension cord, in the kitchen to an outlet they couldn't reach, and they wanted to hook a DVD up to it. So they plugged the DVD player into another outlet. The TV was reversed in the extension cord, and BANG! Kitchen and bathroom both dead, and it didn't trip a breaker. It took me an hour to track it down to a burnt (formerly loose) connection in a daisy-chained outlet, upstream in the circuit, in the bathroom. The tenant lucked out, as the only thing blown was the bathroom outlet.
