"Backstabbed" wiring: bad rap?
On 8/14/2009 6:18 PM David Nebenzahl spake thus:
You're talking about the kind of back-wire connections found on GFCI
outlets, right? To me, that's the best of both worlds: the convenience
and speed of back-wiring plus the positive connection offered by a screw
clamp. I think I'll start using those outlets instead of the el cheapo
Home Despot ones.
Follow-up to my own reply: Do those "spec-grade" outlets come in
non-Decora style? I generally don't like Decora outlets when installing
in older houses.
