How do you rewire a 220 volt receptacle to produce 110 volts?

A 220 volt receptacle is a receptacle which has 2 wires carrying 110 volts...it has two "hot" wires at 110 and a neutral or common leg which has no voltage. A 110 volt receptacle is a receptacle which has 1 wire which carries 110 volts and a common wire. The wiring in the USA is almost standardized now to where the two "hot" (carrying 110 volts) wires are colored black and red, and the common or neutral is white. To change a receptacle to 110 volts..you remove the red or black wire from the old receptacle and wire nut it off...leaving the other red or black to attach to the new receptacle (right side of receptacle usually, looking at it from the grounding hole on the receptacle ON THE BOTTOM). You then connect the white wire to the left side of the receptacle. This will provide only 110 volts now. If the wires are not black, red, and white..they may be black, black, and white. In most cases, the white wire is always the neutral or common wire. When in doubt, buy a voltmeter and check each wire to the metal box in the wall...the wires carrying the 110 volts will usually read 110 on the voltmeter (or 115, 118..etc). Good luck!


How to wire a plug with blue brown and Black?

Test the wire with a meter to determine which wire is your hot, which is your neutral, and which is your ground. Those colors are indicative of a 240v circuit normally, so you may have two hots and a ground. Other wise Hot=Black, Neutral=White, and Ground=Green for placement. On your plug, Black/Hot goes to the brass colored terminal. Green/ground goes to the sometimes green terminal that is off by itself usually at the bottom of the receptacle. The neutral goes to the silver terminal.

Which wire goes on the ground fault receptacle?

In normal home wiring the black and white supply the circuit voltage. The green conductor connects to the green screw. The black conductor connects to the brass coloured screw and the white conductor connects to the silver coloured screw. There are additional terminals on the receptacle that connect to the down stream side of the circuit. By making these connections on the GFI receptacle all downstream normal duplex receptacles are also protected.

Parallel connect the new receptacle to a receptacle in the existing circuit. Black (hot) existing to black (new), white existing to white (new), ground existing to ground (new).
