but if EVERYTHING is done right, then it is safe - but not in code.

Do I connect the white and the green wires together?

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.

How do you wire a 3 wire European oven white black green to a US receptacle with 4 wires white black red and bare?

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.


I see only a red and a green wire coming out from ceiling box. What are they and how do you connect them to a ceiling light?

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.


How do you splice a cord with white and black wires to a cord with red green black and white wires?

To splice a cord with white and black wires to a cord with red, green, black, and white wires, first ensure that both cords are unplugged and safe to work with. Connect the black wire from the first cord to the black wire from the second cord (which is typically the hot wire). Connect the white wire to the white wire (the neutral), and if applicable, connect the green wire (ground) to the ground wire (if present). The red wire is often used for a second hot wire or switch leg; ensure it is capped off safely if not in use. Always use electrical tape or wire connectors to secure the connections and ensure safety.


Can you connect light fixture wires that are black white and ground to house wires that are red white and ground?

Yes, you can connect the light fixture wires to the house wires by matching the colors appropriately. The black wire from the fixture should connect to the red wire from the house, as both typically serve as "hot" wires. The white wire from the fixture should connect to the white wire from the house, which is the neutral. Finally, connect the ground wires (bare or green) together to ensure proper grounding.


What to do with the white wire in track light with black green and white wires if the house does not have a white one?

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.
