the green will be earth ground, used to direct stray current harmlessly to
the ground, avoid using water pipes for this also. make sure your elect box
goes to a copper ground rod

Green ground wires and white neutral wires are not the same. Your green
wires should attach to your metal outlet box

I just installed a Ceiling fan in my bedroom and everything ok went fine
until I tryed to hook the wires up. From the outlet box all I have is two
wires Black (Hot) and White (neutral). So I hooked Ceiling fan wires
Black
and Blue to the Black wire, and the Fan white wire to the outlet box
white
wire. So What to do with the green ground wires? Well I had no place to
put
it so I hook it up to the White neutral. It works just find, Neutral and
Ground is the samething right? I don't want to burn my house down.
