Basically, there are three possible outcomes. The preferred one when you flip that master switch is that everything works.
The second is that nothing happens, and now you have to figure out what the fuck has gone wrong.
The third is an electrical fire.

The best part is if the third happens it doesn’t necessarily happen immediately. It might just happen while you’re sleeping.
Wheeeeeeee!
