Greetings--Feeling kind of dopey--Installed new sink/reinstalled the disposal, thought I had re-wired the same way, but no. Line is on separate cirucuit. Line comes in from under sink. Switch from top of counter going down to disposal. Can I wire this to join wires in disposal so it can be switched from switch? Or, do I need to run the power line up to switch? Thanks for the assistance! Kevin

Hi All, I need a little professional advice if anyone can help. I've just installed a whirlpool bathtub in the master bath and want to confirm I've done it correctly before I jump in and electrocute myself. The tub has a pump motor and an inline heater. Both have 3 prong power cords. I've installed two new 20 amp breakers at the main breaker box, run the appropriate (according to the electrical department manager at Lowes) wiring to the bathroom via the crawlspace, and installed two new 20 amp GFCI outlets, one for the heater and one for the motor. No problem so far. Now, the instructions say, "Ensure the heater and pump are properly GROUNDED and BONDED as required. Attach the 8 AWG solid copper conductor supplied with the heater from the heater bonding lug to the motor frame bonding lug as shown in Figure 3. The conductor is secured to the lugs using set screws. The motor frame shall have a second 8 AWG solid copper conductor connected from the frame bonding lug to the homes electrical panel or approved local bonding point as shown in Figure 3." I connected the copper wire to the heater and motor frame lugs as instructed, then purchased another 4' of 8 AWG copper conductor so that I can run that from the motor to ground as shown in Figure 3, which you any see here, unfortunately. There are two lugs on the motor, so I connected the wire from the heater to one, and the second wire to the other, assuming that's ok. So my question is, how do I ground this second copper wire? From reading through similar questions in this forum, it seems that I could connect to the cold water supply if it were copper, but ours is all PEX. There's no additional metal nearby as the tub is all fiberglass and PVC (except the faucet). Is the second copper wire necessary even though I've got to 3 prong cords plugged into GFCI outlets? Do I run a copper wire all the way from the motor to the breaker box and send it through the grounding lugs there? Do I stick it straight into the dirt in the crawlspace (asked only half in jest...)? I'm at a loss what to do with this second copper wire...any help would be appreciated! Thanks!!!!
