Question

GFI Switch

I will be placing a light switch a the end of a GFI outlet run. Will this work or will this cause the GFI to trip when the light is switch on?

Replacing a 3 prong receptacle with a 4 prong one

M

moechris on Nov 16, 2002

Hello, In the process of replacing a 13 year old electric range (in a 13 year old house) with a dual fuel range, I noticed that the new range has a 4 prong plug. The old range had a three prong (and of course a 3 prong receptacle). I think it is a foregone conclusion that I need to replace the receptacle. I would appreciate any help anyone has to offer. Thanks, MoeRead More

2 circuits. 1 Junction box. OK?

Hello all. Is there any prohibition against power from two separate circuits entering one switchbox? Specifically, I want to have a switch that controls a dining room light to be in the same switchbox as a switch that controls a living room light. Power from each circuit will enter the box, go to the respective switch, and then to the respective light receptacle. I am 99% sure this is OK, but want a confirmation. Secondly (and this is the part I'm not sure about), how should I handle the white wires. I know the neutrals are ultimately connected at the service panel. But within the switchbox, should the neutrals from each circuit be joined, or should they be left isolated from each other and simply sent to their respective light receptacles? Thanks in advance.Read More
