Microwave terms.
Arcing 
Arcing is the microwave term for sparks in the oven. 
Arcing is caused by:
metal or foil touching the side of the oven.
foil that is not molded to food (upturned edges act like 
antennas).
metal such as twist-ties, poultry pins, gold-rimmed dishes.
recycled paper towels containing small metal pieces.
Covering
Covers hold in moisture, allow for more even heating and reduce 
cooking time. Venting plastic wrap or covering with wax paper 
allows excess steam to escape.
Shielding
In a regular oven, you shield chicken breasts or baked foods to 
prevent over-browning. When microwaving, you use small strips 
of foil to shield thin parts, such as the tips of wings and legs on 
poultry, which would cook before larger parts.
Standing Time When you cook with regular ovens, foods such as roasts or cakes 
are allowed to stand to finish cooking or to set. Standing time is 
especially important in microwave cooking. Note that a 
microwaved cake is not placed on a cooling rack.
Venting
After covering a dish with plastic wrap, you vent the plastic wrap by 
turning back one corner so excess steam can escape.
