Does the switch control the receptacle, or is the receptacle always
powered?

These are really simple wiring concepts, but if you are having
difficulty understanding them, you should probably ask someone you
know for more assistance. Wiring errors can kill people, burn down
houses, etc.

Thank you.
They are only simple if you happen to know how the S/R works. If not, it is
simply unknown; no amount of electrical experience can tease it out.


A few minutes w/ an VOM would "tease it out" if only a modicum of
electrical experience is available...
