Do I need two ground wires -one for each socket- if I split an outlet?

No, you do not need two ground wires if you split an outlet. The ground wire can be shared between the two new outlets, as long as it is connected properly to both of them. Make sure the ground wire is securely connected to both outlets to ensure proper grounding for safety.


How can I wire a bathroom fan and light to operate on the same switch?

To wire a bathroom fan and light to operate on the same switch, you will need to connect the hot wires from both the fan and light to the hot wire coming from the switch. Then, connect the neutral wires from both the fan and light to the neutral wire coming from the switch. Finally, connect the ground wires from both the fan and light to the ground wire coming from the switch. This will allow you to control both the fan and light with a single switch.

How do you hook up ele plug in wires coming in to house the plug has white black and ground wires and the wire from the house has white black red and ground hooked to a 30amp fuse?

You will have to check to make sure. Normally, with 4 wires, the black and red are both power for 220. White for neutral and bare for ground. If you are only using one leg of it, you would use the black, white, bare ones and cap the red one. Someone may have used the 4 strand because they had it or 220 was planned but not done or both the red and black are hot. You should be able to tell in the panel. Do the red and black both connect to separate breakers or to one or is the red not connected?


Can you explain how the neutral and ground wires are connected on the same bus bar in an electrical panel?

In an electrical panel, the neutral and ground wires are connected to the same bus bar to provide a path for electricity to flow back to the source and to ground any excess electricity for safety. The neutral wire carries current back to the source, while the ground wire is a safety measure to prevent electric shock. Connecting them to the same bus bar ensures that both wires have a direct path to return electricity safely.
