Q:Does anyone have a link/website that shows which size/color wire nut to use for connecting different guage size wires?What should I be looking out for when screwing on the nut to the wires. Is there anything that I will notice when I have found the correct size?Is the color of the nut standard from one manufacture to another?thanks

Q:Electrical wire can be supplied spooled, or kirked, What is 'kirking' and where does the term originate?

That's a new one on me. It seems to mean wrapping into a long bundle without using a spool. I've done that with wire lots of times but never knew it had a name! As for it's origins, who knows. I'd guess it's an old sailors' term for a way of wrapping up a rope.

Q:Hi everyone, just curious about some different things ive read on the internet, there is 3 switches, 2x2 way and 1xintermediate. in the 1st 2 way coming down from the light, the brown coming down is in l2 with the brown coming up that connects the intermediate switch. the black wire coming up goes into the common in the 2 way switch. in the intermediate it says the grey go in the l1 and l2 and the brown go in the other l1 l2 whilst the black ones are in the connector blocks. i thought it was the grey and black in the l1's and l2's and the browns in connector blocks. thanks for your time to the ones who help :).i have an exam on it tomorrow and thats 1 thing ive read on the internet that i dont think was right.

The circuit you describe is called a 4 way switch circuit. At the first switch in the circuit the power feed is terminated at the common terminal of the switch and the two travelers ( one red and one black ) of the interconnecting wire connect to the other two terminals. At the center switch of the circuit which is called a 4 way switch ( there can be any number of 4 way switches in a circuit but they must always be in the middle of the circuit ) the input travelers connect to the bright terminal screws and the output travelers connect to the dark terminal screws (typically top-top and bottom-bottom) then at the last switch in the circuit (again a 3 way switch) the travelers connect to the two terminals which are the same color and the output to the light connects to the common terminal. At each switch box the neutral (White) wire is wire nutted to the white wire of the next set of wires. And the bare copper ground wire is both bonded ( Compression bond ) to the ground wire of the next cable AND terminated to the green grounding screw in the box if it is a metal box AND terminated to the green grounding screw on the yoke of the switch.

Q:HiI had a new electrical service put in, they connected the new wires to the old wire from the pole, My question is can you touch one wire at a time without getting zapped, (100 amp) the service wires coming from the poles to the meter.Because when they changed my service he striped the old wires and connected the new wires to the old wires.thank you

Never, never touch any wire until you know it is dead. And even then, check it with a voltmeter. Standard installation the electrician installs a new panel in the house, runs a conduit up to the roof. He then runs his wires from the new panel up through the conduit and weather head. The utility electrician runs the service drop for the pole and attaches it to the weather head. He then splices the wires at the weather head. Warning, the insulated wires have defective insulation. You touch one, 240 volts and 5,000 amps. The bare neutral wire also can have some kick to it. Stay away.

Q:I want to replace a switch (not 3 way) with a switch that also has a plug on it. Does it wire the same? If you could check out my other question

Like Irv stated, you can do it if you have the correct wires in the box. You need a hot and neutral and ground to feed the receptacle part. You need the hot and the wire going to the light or whatever, on the switch. Your wife is correct and you should get an electrician to do it for you.
