Must have been when my fever started getting to me.
But these Cooper contractor packs of 10 grounding duplex 120V 15A receptacles were in the bargain bin for $3.60 each.
That's for ten of them.
I wandered over to the regular ones, 27.00 for the pack.
OK.
I certainly don't see anything wrong with them, unopened.
Here's the tech question:
I have an obsolete electrical water heater connection coming into my garage. Dual ganged on the breaker box, so it has what looks like two full 120V leads out of it.
Is it safe to install a 120V on one of these legs?
Or will the breaker operate at 30 amps, since they are "tied together"?
Maybe I can remove the tie.
Is that common, to make the 240 out of two 120's...single phase?
