Finagled my way into the attic to explore a bit. Found this wiring run that basically lays on the sheet rock with insulation sitting on top. It goes to a light switch that controls three of this thin led recessed lights. Could this get really hot and start a fire with the insulation on top?

edit: breathing easier now. Sounds like this is normal stuff. Thanks for the help!

    No.

    1 - Breaker will go before you can pull too much current through that wire for it to get hot.

    2 - LED Lights aren’t breaking any breakers.
