In theory this should only ocure at the main junction box ...
but if EVERYTHING is done right, then it is safe - but not in code.
To connect a green, black, and white wire in an electrical circuit, you should connect the green wire to the ground terminal, the black wire to the hot terminal, and the white wire to the neutral terminal. Make sure to follow proper safety precautions and consult an electrician if needed.
Connect to the circuit neutral wire which should also be white.
To properly connect white, black, and green wires in an electrical circuit, you should match the white wire to the neutral terminal, the black wire to the hot terminal, and the green wire to the ground terminal. This ensures the safe and effective flow of electricity in the circuit.
The neutral wire and power wire are never connected together.
Red is hot Green is ground White is neutral
NO. Your GREEN wire is your grounding conductor. Your WHITE wires can be either of two things: 1) A natural white wire will be your (Neutral) line, 2) A "Tagged" white wire is a (Hot) or Live wire. Which means that if your white wire is tagged, it is a "Secondary BLACK" wire. Usually you will find an indication of "tagging" at the front of each sides connection of the wire.
Connect the white wire from the European oven to the white wire in the US receptacle. Connect the black wire from the European oven to the black wire in the US receptacle. Connect the green wire from the European oven to the bare wire in the US receptacle. The green wire serves as the ground wire since you don't have a separate ground wire in the US receptacle.
Connect the black wire to the hot wire, the white wire to the neutral wire, and the green wire to the grounding screw or terminal on the dishwasher. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions and all safety guidelines. If you are unsure, it's best to contact a licensed electrician to complete the wiring.
Normally red or black is the hot wire and green is the ground. However someone may have used the green wire as the neutral wire which is normally white. Just connect the black wire from the light to the red wire and the white wire from the light to the green wire and see if it works. If not you have to pull the wires out of the ceiling box and see how they wired it.
The white is neutral. The house does have a neutral wire even though it may be black. One of those black wires is the neutral and the other is the hot wire. You will have to determine which is hot and which is neutral. You can easily do this with a voltage tester. The wire that lights the tester is the hot. When you wire the light simply wire the hot to hot, and the white and green to the other wire.
The green wire is the ground wire, which is used for safety to prevent electric shock. The white wire is the neutral wire, which completes the circuit and carries the return current back to the electrical panel.
If you are connecting 120 volts, you connect the black wire to the breaker, white wire to the neutral bar, and ground wire to the ground bar. If you are connecting 240 volts connect the black & white wires to the breaker, & ground wire to the ground bar.
