  • My breaker box is built into metal, it seems like they all would be to try and prevent fires. Commented Jul 5 at 14:39
  • @Ken-EnoughaboutMonica does not really matter if the box is from metal or plastic. If you have a short in your box there are enough plastics to use for fuel from the breakers which can create enough heat to ignite something else nearby. Still, even from only having a fire in the breaker box you will have a lot of toxic smoke. Commented Jul 6 at 16:12
