The "Bulb Burning" without kicking a breaker, should be Your immediate concern.

hello I got a call from a store manager saying ,when he replaced his burned light bulb.The new bulb starting to smoke & burned the new bulb, its controlled by a motion sensor ,I will be taking a look at the problem today, can this be a sensor problem or short in the bulb socket ? or electrical wires touching ,if any one came across this issue in past please with motion sensor controlled bulbs please share. thanks

I went to the job on Thursday, the same day I posted.I replaced the motion sensors with single pole rocker switch to match with the wall finish by the manager request,as far as the sparking goes ,seemed like the manager probably didnt securely push the tube light in the socket correctly & made it worse ,but after replacing the tube bulb & not using the damaged socket, its working fine,no complaints. I do want to mention that the motion sensor was getting 120v ,on the metal part which was scary didnt trip breaker ,& neutral white wire reading 120volt & no ground wire installed,I strongly recommend manager to get qualified electrician to fix/look into the circuit. Currently no shorts or lights burning
