One of the wires on the main cable was not screwed down tightly inside the main panel. With 3 a/c's and the dryer running, the connection wasn't solid enough and the resistance from that caused heat. I reset the breakers 2 times before the flames came out of the panel. Something told me to go back down in the basement. Thank God I did.
I feel better knowing the mats don't go deep inside the panel. I have been following this post and it is quite interesting. Now that I'm retired, I couldn't/wouldn't indulge, but it is fun to learn something new. I am not as narrow minded as some thought I was.
