It Was Hot
If you touch a switch plate and it is hot, that is bad.
If you flip the switch to off and the lights don’t turn off, that is bad.
If your electrical breaker box does not have good labels, you may turn off the wrong things while you find the right switch.
And if your light switch has a big crack in the back – well, it needs to be replaced before it decides to start an electrical fire.
Fortunately, for less than a dollar, the Webmaster bought a replacement switch, and all was well. But that was not a fun moment. At all.
