To stop this, a good practice is to fit a fuse or circuit breaker to the battery itself (like those fitted to cars for the same reason). These fit on one of the battery terminals and, rated to the maximum current of your house power, will limit the amount of accidental welding you'll do whilst fiddling with the wiring with the power switched on...
