As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

Can you pigtail grounds in a panel in order to prevent double lugging on the neutral bus.?
The ground wires should not be terminated on the neutral bus. They should be terminated on to the ground bus which should be located on the back wall of the distribution panel. The wires don't have to be pigtailed when inserted into the ground bus. More that one wire can go under the terminal screws if you are running out of room. Shut the panel off and remove any ground wires that are now under the neutral bus terminals and move them to the ground bus. Some panels use a lug for a ground bus. All ground wires into the lug and tighten. In a ground fault condition it is the ground wires that are connected to the ground potential that trip the breaker, not ground wires connected to neutrals. Be safe.
Can neutral and bare copper wires be under the same screw on a bus bare in a single family home electrical panel?
No, ground wires should not be terminated on the neutral bus. They should be terminated on to the ground bus which should be located on the back wall of the distribution panel. More that one wire can go under the terminal screws if you are running out of room. Shut the panel off and remove any ground wires that are now under the neutral bus terminals and move them to the ground bus. Some panels use a lug for a ground bus. All ground wires into the lug and tighten. In a ground fault condition it is the ground wires that are connected to the ground potential that trip the breaker, not ground wires connected to neutrals.

Where do you ground the extra wire when plugging a 4 prong wire into a three prong outlet for a dryer at?
It may be a 220 Dryer, and you will need a new outlet installed. There should be no extra wires when connecting the Power cord to the plug
Will wet coils dry out and work again?
coils are sealed except for the terminal were the plug wires are installed. with plug wires properly installed on these terminals you should be able to spray the coils with water while it is running and have no problems with an engine miss or arching of electricity. if it is missing when wet around the plug wires and arching is present then the wires should be replaced, if it is arching anywhere else then the coil casing could be cracked and should be replaced.
Should you attach the ground wire to the black wires?
in a home noin a car yes
Passenger side air bag light on after CD player installed was installed. Check Engine light on?
Check ground wires... and all connections.
Can you put an above ground pool under electric wires?
No! check with your power company.....

Can you install two ground wires in the same raceway?
There should be no reason to install two ground wires in the same conduit. Code requires that only a single path should be required if it is to carry a fault current. This ground wire should be single and continuous from the device back to the distribution panel. It is the fault current that is carried on the ground wire that trips the breaker or fault protection device. Don't confuse grounding wires with bonding wires.
How many wires in a single phase motor?
There should be 2 or 3 wires. A hot, a neutral and sometimes a ground.
How far do overhead wires need to be from above ground pool?
ten feet or more is a nice distance.

It may be a 220 Dryer, and you will need a new outlet installed. There should be no extra wires when connecting the Power cord to the plug
Are receptacles installed horizontally or vertically?
The NEC doesn't specify. Generally they are installed vertically with the ground on bottom. In the world that I work in the ground is always installed on top. This is so if a gap exists between an outlet and the plug, anything falling into the gap hits the ground first and not across the hot and neutral wires simultaneously. Expanding on this premise an outlet installed horizontally with the neutral on top is the most safe installation. But I have never seen this done.
