Julie123 Ground Clip Question

My understanding is that the logic behind only allowing the use of the pre-tapped hole for the grounding screw is that there is less danger of corrosion over time getting in there between the ground screw and the box. By that logic it would seem grounding clips would also be not a good choice -- are they still allowed by latest code?

Hi julie123 and welcome to the forums. Your question is attached to a 9 year old link. You would be much better off to start a fresh link with your question.
The electric gurus should be off work shortly, so check back for an answer.
