I've been trying to figure if the cold wire of a
three wire dryer is a neutral or ground. I'd thought
it was a ground, but some folks on the list and
on the web thought it's a neutral.


It *is* a ground. It's connected to the case of the appliance. Would
you connect a neutral to the case?


Oh, now I'm all confused.
