electric moron here
I have an old house.
I am trying to put in an electric socket where one existed before. It has a white wire, black wire and one with no insulation. The only combination of wires that light the light on my tester, is the black wire and the one without insulation. This does not seem right to me, but like I said, I am a moron when it comes to electricity! Is this outlet unusable? If so, what is the proper way to hook it up. TIA |
