What they say

Hide

The ridge side is connecting to the white to the neutral. And the smooth side is actually connecting to the hot wire. And then agreeing obviously is going to the ground. That in there, through that right down. That way it stays in place. Let's take that ground. We'll just get that in there first. Get it nice and tight. We need some wire nuts. Start below the wire nut, tape up your wire nut. Just to make sure that everything is going to stay together there. Take that, pop that in there, pop this back on.
