How do I know which wire is ground and neutral?
Quote from the video:
Quote from Youtube video: If you don't get a voltage reading the wire is neutral. If you get a reading the wire is hot you can also use color coding to identify. Hard neutral and ground wires.
What color wire is ground?
green wire
The green wire (or it can sometimes be uncolored) wire is the “ground” wire, it will take electricity back to the breaker panel, then outside to a rod that’s buried in the ground. This is to prevent the electricity from running through you!
Where do you connect the ground wire?
Quote from the video:
Quote from Youtube video: When you're connecting up a new light fixture. You'll have one piece of romex coming into your electrical box from your switch.
Where do I connect the green ground wire?
Quote from the video:
Quote from Youtube video: The ground wire from the green terminal on the receptacle. The one that's connected to the metal box.
