Started walking out there... then saw the smoke. Ran back and flipped the breaker. That's when I think I realized that this was a 240 circuit.
SO I basically eliminated one side of it... then used the same process of elimination (meaning, no fires or sparks yet) process to reconnect to the new sub panel.
This IS the DIY thread right
