Am I correct?


Sounds like you understand how the fingers work. Just some tips:

1. Only qualified personnel should ever do 'electrical' work.
2. Plan out the project, this case a box, so you don't have to undo
yourwork. I.E. Pull inserted cables back out.
3. Becareful with the 'fingers' they do break.
4. Take your time, I don't have big hands (neighter big feet )
but it get's crowded quickly inside those remodel boxes.
