ok.
I have power to a switched box that i will wire to my compressor. i
have 4-strand 6 gauge cord.
problem is compressor has 2 hot and a ground, no neutral. �what do i
do with my white wire?
my googling came up with:
A. attach it to the breaker along with the black. (sounds sketchy, why
not just not use it)?
B. ground it at the compressor. Sounds better but ?
Any help would be great.

I always thought the white wire was the neutral and should be
connected to the neutral buss. The ground wire (green or bare) can go
to any metal on the object that is being wired or to a ground rod or
the neutral buss too.

Am I wrong here? If so, how?
