I'm planning on moving 3 switches (or add 3-way switches). They are all currently in the same box and I wanted to make sure I understand the circuits. In the picture, you can see the 3 cables coming in and out of the box. The top right cable is connected via a red wire to the bedroom ceiling light switch (rightmost switch, half visible). The top left cable, via 2 red wires goes to the two other switches (pulled off) that operate a living room light, and outlet. All 3 switches are connected to each other and to the black wire from the top left cable. Furthermore there is a pair of white and yellow (mostly painted white) wires that simply pass through from the top right cable to the bottom cable. My best guess is that these two wires go to the outlet that is below the switch box (yellow because AFCI?). After thinking about this, I think that the black is the live supply, and reds go to each device. What confused me was that there are no neutral, but that's normal when the supply goes to the light first, right? I'm sure I'll have more questions soon as this is my first home project, but let's start with the basics. :) Thanks for the help! [ATTACH]80514[/ATTACH]

Hello everyone, 1. We have connected a Fridge and a Motor Pump. The Switch of the Pump is next to the socket which is used to connect the fridge. 2. Whenever we switch on the pump for 10 mins or more. The switch of the pump gets heated. 3. Recently our fridge went bad and the technician is not sure the reason. Apparently a PCB which controls the Compressor has gone bad and needs to be replaced. We have been using it for the last 1 year connected to the same point. 4. We have connected both the Fridge and Pump to a Socket and switch which does not have a ground. 5. My questions is will not having a ground wire cause the fridge to go bad. 6. What steps do i need to take to prevent my fridge from going bad. Thanks for your help. [COLOR=#0000ff]Moderators note: This member is located in India.[/COLOR]
