@hitachi088 No, I defended my point in the post above where I mentioned the battery. You have yet to give an intelligent response. Since that post you have been nothing but insulting and condensing. You have offered no meaningful response to back up whatever point you’re trying to make, other then to call me stupid. You are ignorant and childish, and i will have nothing more to do with you.

@ocxic go on, continue posting. you amuse me.

“When a circuit breaker trips the current flows harmlessly to the ground?”
No, … when a circuit breaker trips, it interrupts the flow of current to anywhere unless there is a short. In reference to the wider contact on a two wire plug…”this is a safety feature that keeps power from running to an appliance, even when it’s switched off?” That has nothing to do with power running to an appliance, other than to insure that the case, covering, etc. is at neutral potential, not hot!!! Dummy

its 120v and 240v when it enters your home 240v for the high power devices and 120 for lights and outlets thats a better definition

@hitachi088 u have to know the code

secure connections with electrical tape??? Not in my house!

WOW….so many improper statements in this video. I guess it will serve for a purpose but again alot of incorrect statements are contained in this video. Hope they address them but I wont…lol…unless they pay me to visit all their stores and train the staff…;)

this is why we have to go back and fix so many homeowner projects, thanks for providing us service calls… dumbing it down and encouraging unsafe handling techniques is not a good plan. Not once did I hear “never work on a live circuit”. seems real simple requirement for a homeowners safety. again, thank you home depot for all the call backs and re-work.

@TheMrSanchos Ya knock yourself out reading the rules… Try reading the Electrical code or the Delmar…It takes 7200 hours on the job and in school to know the rules and understand there meaning… But by all means play the game and give me a call when you see smoke…

When dealing with electrical, must be very careful, DANGEROUS
