Grounding Screw Sizes & Types
I recently opened up an old electrical box with a weak ground. To fix
the ground problem I wanted to connect a ground wire to a green grounding screw into the box. However, the old box doesn't have any holes for 8-32 sized screws, but only for the larger holes (for mounting?). Questions: A) Is there any reason why I cannot screw the grounding wire into one of the larger holes in the box? B) What size screws fit the larger holes? C) Would any normal screw metal type work? Thank you. |
