Hello everyone, First time poster here. I'm installing a new power outlet and HDMI input behind our TV, for my wife's Christmas present. I've run the 14/2 wire, and I'm ready to begin wiring it to a power outlet below the TV, but I'm not sure exactly how to wire it up correctly. When my wife was out of the house, I removed the outlet and inspected the electrical box. There are currently three inlets to the box, and I've punch out a fourth inlet, which will lead to my new outlet. The box currently has the following configuration: Inlet 1: Hot wire goes to right side Neutral wire goes to left side Inlet 2: Hot wire goes to Inlet 3 Neutral wire goes to left side Inlet 3: Hot wire goes to Inlet 2 (described above) Another hot wire goes to right side Ground goes to right side (I think the ground post is on the right side; I need to double-check this) I believe Inlet 1 leads to a power outlet, Inlet 2 leads to another power outlet, and Inlet 3 leads to a switch and intercom box. Does this configuration make any sense? I don't understand why Inlet 2 would have a hot wire going to Inlet 3 and why the only ground wire comes from Inlet 3. Whatever is going on, the outlet functions as expected; we've been powering our TV and PC from this outlet for 2 years now. Can anyone help me sort out this mystery? Also, with this in mind, how might I wire up the new line to this configuration? Thanks for your help!

Hello all, I was unsure of where to post this question so if there is a better forum maybe someone can redirect me. Ok, I was cleaning out my garage and had to move my large tool chest and found water damage on the sheetrock behind it. I ripped out one section of the sheetrock where my electrical panel comes through the wall and there is mold all down the inside of the rigid panel insulation. I am trying to determine how to stop the water from coming into the wall. When I look at the water damage it looks like it is coming through the nail holes and the screw holes that attach the meter box to the house. The question is how do I stop the water infiltration when I obviously cannot get behind the meter box to seal the holes. Several years ago the electric company changed from spinning meters to smart meters and the guy the changed my meter pretty much ripped it right off the house so that the only thing holding it up is the metal pipe that guides the power line into the house from underground. I know I need to stop moisture from getting in but am unsure of how to do that. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!
