When I want to play mine, I plug them in and turn them on.
When I’m done, I turn them off and unplug them.
I’m shocked to learn about “arc faults.” This thread has been an education about electricity for me.

Quoted from MK6PIN:Arc fault protection has been in code for awhile...Primarily due to vacuum cleaners starting fires..
Is this something that’s common with knob and tube?
What things should I look for, if anything, when bringing a game home?
Quoted from MK6PIN:If you have knob and tube in your home, probably can't plug your pins in anyway..No grounding connection (3rd pin)...I'd be focused on changing that out, for sure...Had a house built in `47 that I had to go completely through before selling it...Huge pita...
The house is on breakers, knob and tube was just removed/cut out of my house, just curious.
It was a major pita for me, I'm still cleaning up the dust from the horse hair plaster weeks later.
