I think that is more coincidental. The third ground prong may be used by the device maker as a safety ground in case either the line or load wire shorts to the housing of the unit, especially metal, causing the device casing to become energized. This is to prevent you from becoming the ground...

If there is two circuits, the proper way would be to use two separate single gang boxes with one in and one out. I know it sucks, but cutting a rectangular drywall patch from stud to stud is probably your best choice. Especially if you want the boxes supported. You can then screw a crib board to...

Yeah, much easier lol. Brown = Black, Blue = White, Bare (or sometimes Green) = green. In three wire we use red to indicate the different circuit. What is used there?

Yes. Basic switches only interrupt the black wire. From your picture of the old exposed wiring in the switch, it appears that all wires are black, white and Copper. The reason they are inside that switch is that there is no electrical box to keep them protected. Looking closely, you can see...

Here's what is being said

One definition of chunk is "a thick, solid piece of something". An apt description as I ever heard,whether on my chest, in a milk crate, or when I stub my toe on it.

I think he is in your case referring to the way the switch connects not only the black, but the white neutral and Copper ground. On your new switch you will simply connect the two black wires to the switch. The white neutrals will be maretted, and the ground twisted together. Good practice...

In our world? This isn't Barney's Sunday Auctions. They sell most of the most valuable and sought after Mopars ever built. As well as every other marque. I think it is generally accepted terminology in their world as well. Hell, even for all other makes! We ain't that speshul

Are you really basing your argument on the fact that the Mecum listing is wrong? That's pretty weak. They use various descriptions when describing the installed engine. Some like "a factory P-code 400 or a factory H-code 383" indicates correct style (maybe year) correct displacement...

Oh I read them. I just am having trouble understanding why you are not comprehending it. 1. The auction states the VIN. Obviously a 1969 Swinger 340. 2. The car has the " MATCHING NUMBERS BLOCK". This does not mean the displacement matches. It says nothing about the transmission. It says...

1969 Dodge Dart Swinger For Sale At Auction - Mecum Auctions Like duh......

And since neither has been shown in the sale ad, or on the previous Mecum sales auction to refute the issue, the probability is more likely to exist. Due diligence? Sounds great. That is what asking about these things is! What it's a secret? It's not uncommon for people to purchase online...

Yes. The car was restored by cc in 1984. That makes it 15yrs old at the time. The Mecum sale I linked from 2022 lists the VIN and the description also says matching numbers engine. If the car has it's original engine, the likelihood that during the original restoration someone removed the...

Exactly. I just don't believe that someone would "remove" one, regardless of whether their new exhaust system used it. If so, they would for sure have removed the ds one to match both sides for appearance sake.
