What they say

Hide

circuit breaker. Now, there are three conductors, guys. Black wire is the hot, also known as the power. White wire is the neutral, and green wire is the ground. Ground is always green. GG's. Remember that. Once I get my wires and breaker installed, I then knock out the blank on the panel cover. I put the panel cover on. Now, we're almost done, guys.
