Pi$$er!
I’m pretty experienced in electrical/electronic matters. I didn’t think you could start a fire that way.
If you could, wouldn’t rats in the walls start more conflagrations?

Probably started out on electric fences, and graduated to this.

There is a clip somewhere in the internet of a boy in an elevator who decides to douse the control panel. It's all fun and games until smoke starts coming out and the elevator comes to a sudden stop. The kids panics. The whole thing is on film. Not much opportunity to say, "Golly officer, I don't know what happened!"

I didnt think you could start a fire that way. Yea, assuming it was wired correctly, the GFCI device in the plug should have tripped first and if it didn't have one the circuit breaker should have tripped long before a fire started.....

Pee is conductive so you could get shocked, depending on what the ground return path was (hint - don’t try standing barefoot on a concrete floor for your first experiment). But starting a fire? No way, with pee alone. Maybe with the aid of an accelerant and some flammable materials but even then you’d have to create an arc which would be far easier but just shoving a penny or nail or any conductive item across the AC line (quickly to avoid blowing the fuse). Better yet, make a fuse out of some small gauge wire and keep it zipped. Peeing on anything never ends well.

I hope the electricity DOESN’T travel “upstream”.....110 on the peepee is bad juju.

The boy was arrested, it is unclear what charges he will face.
About 110 volts AC I'd estimate. Bunches of amps as a side order.

"Im pretty experienced in electrical/electronic matters. I didnt think you could start a fire that way." During my freshman year in college, we had a soda vending machine in the lobby of my dorm. Somebody figured out that if you pumped saline into the coin slot, you could complete whatever circuits were needed to release a can of soda. Quite a few people in the dorm kept a turkey baster and salt shaker on hand in case they got thirsty. Before long, there was a salt stalactite growing down the front of the machine that would rival anything in Mammoth Cave. One day, the machine had enough and caught fire. The vending company decided to cut its losses and removed the machine.
