Which colors are hot on a 4 prong dryer cord?

A four blade dryer plug cord should have a red, black, white, and green wire in the cord set. The red and black wires are the ones that deliver the 240 volts to the dryer. Black and white deliver control 120 volts to the dryer and also drive the motor to turn the dryer drum. On some dryers they use the red and white for the motor and black and white for the control. As for the green it is always the ground wire.


Why 4 wires for dryer?

The dryer is a 240v dryer so two of the wires are your hot wires, or the ones with power on them. One is your ground wire. And the forth is your neutral.


Is black the neutral wire?

no in resd. it's hot normally but if wired oppisate 2006 irc code


Have a black white and red wire for a dryer plug what ones the ground wire?

It would be green or bare. That's if you have a grounding wire in the cable. You may not have one.


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?
