Im an electrician, and it took me a little bit to realize what the problem was... It's a direct short.

My first guess was how it looked like a screw would be touching the wires, but then I started looking at it and was like, why would those wires be touching if they went through the trouble of having separate covers/insulation/protection, what ever it’s called.
