minus-squarenocturnelinkfedilink4•1 month agoRunning copper from the plug? I get from the poles on the back of the outlet… but plugging in copper and then running that to another outlet?
minus-square@KnightontheSunlink7•1 month agoI think they didn’t read your comment the way you intended. You were trying to describe someone wiring Romex into the plug face and they missed that.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink-2•edit-21 month agoI’m actually college educated on electronic circuits and do electrical engineering as a hobby. As long as the wires can’t short, using the front receptical is functionally no different than using the back. It’s all one piece of metal, and it’s not going to be somewhere that it’ll be disturbed. It may not be the best way, but done right it’s not dangerous.
