That's kind of how we found the hidden fuse box in our old house. Young me was having fun putting a screw across a partially connected plug and then half the basement lights went out.

They were out for a month since none of the fuses blew in the only fuse box we knew about. Had to get some special equipment to trace the lines without tearing out the walls. The box was in the ceiling completely covered by drywall.
