I was working on a large construction site where the electricians were swapping the wiring over for the dozens of Portacabins from generators to mains, to save time they missed the check, I suspected something wasn't right when the power came on and the lighting was much brighter, followed by many load bangs as the switch-mode power supplies let go in the computers, copiers and AV training equipment, very little survived and the electricians received are very large bill for the damage.
