    I would check the breakers, and have some one check the receptacle it was plugged into. May have disturbed something barely hanging on(nicking during stripping may have influenced a break).
    This is particularly where the box did not have pigtails, but are dependent on the receptacle to carry on. Acceptable, Code, But Not Good.
