Has anyone ever known a receptacle to have an internal short I had to replace one it was a 15A rated duplex receptacle the weird thing about this and why I ask this question is that there was nothing plugged into the damaged outlet the other outlet had a small oil filled radiator type heater plugged into it and the same set up is on the next receptacle but no damage to either outlet and neither unit pulls more than 15A at any given time. By damaged I mean partially melted.
Any thoughts???????
