@livin.lost: Black to brass. White to bright. Ground to green. Always shut off power and verify the circuit is de-energized before doing electrical work. #Electrical #DIY #HomeImprovement #Tools #HowTo
I was taught “black people wear gold, white people wear silver”😂

Electrician here. You did everything correctly! My only tip is the strip gauge on back of plus is designed for back stabbing only. When doing the loop method, the wire needs to be stripped more so insulation doesn’t touch the screws as it can be a violation. I always do 1.5 times the gauge length for looping. Other than that, perfect!

Too much jacket, not enough wire, needs to be pigtailed, and hooks aren’t done properly.

Hey man, odd question, but old owner has the electrical outlet connected to the bathroom light switch (same with the fan…) how can I separate these 3 things rather than have everything require the light to be on to work

DO NOT USE THE PLUGS IN THE BACK. I have seen so many outlets burnt out cause they jam the wire in the back of the outlet. Just take the time to make the hooks and screw em down.
