∙ 18y agoI am guessing that the stove runs on 240 VAC and that the four wires were Black, Red, White and Green. There would be 240 VAC between the Black and Red wires and 120 VAC between the Black and White and Red and White wires. The green wire is ground. If this is the case you need a plug that matches the original 4 conductor receptacle.

∙ 14y agoThe only time you should splice any home electrical wiring is inside a junction box. Any other way is wrong and it may and will cause fires, even death.

∙ 13y agoYes, older dryers were wired this way. If you have knowledge and can identify the neutral, you can use this wire as a ground also as neutral should be bonded to ground in the USA.

If you are connecting a 4-prong dryer cord to a 3-prong outlet, the extra ground wire (green or bare copper wire) should be left unconnected. Do not try to ground it by connecting it to the neutral terminal or anywhere else. This is to prevent creating a ground loop and potentially causing a safety hazard.
Yes, adapters are available for purchase to convert a 3-prong dryer outlet to a 4-prong dryer cord. These adapters are designed to make the conversion safe and straightforward, allowing you to use your dryer with the proper electrical connection. Just ensure that the adapter is compliant with electrical safety standards.
GOLD IS THE VERY BEST CONDUCTOR, but for the money copper is better than aluminum and worth the extra cost.
The neutron is the subatomic particle in the atom that does not have an electric charge. It is located in the nucleus along with the positively charged protons, and its role is to help stabilize the nucleus by adding mass without adding extra charge.
Hairdryers often have a double-insulated design, which means they have an extra layer of insulation to protect against electric shocks. This eliminates the need for an earth wire in the cable because the double insulation provides adequate protection against electric leakage.
The statement "the hair dryer has double insulation" means that the hair dryer is designed with an extra layer of insulation to protect against electric shocks. This additional layer provides an added safety measure by reducing the risk of electrical hazards.

How much is a four year old dryer worth? It is a GE extra large capacity with 5 cycles.
Yes the Motor will fit if you pull out the Ford motor. (It is Quite hard to rewire)
A measure of extra charges on an object is typically referred to as the electric charge. Electric charge is a fundamental property of matter that can be positive or negative, and it is quantified in units of coulombs.
If the load is soaking wet, it will take longer to dry in the dryer as the machine will need more time to evaporate the excess moisture. This can put strain on the dryer's motor and heating element as it works harder to dry the clothes. Over time, this extra strain can lead to premature failure of the dryer components.
Repairing it would depend on how it was damaged. A person could simply tape up some torn pieces if its an easy fix, or rewire it with extra wire for a major fix.Ê

Cleaning it lifts a massive security risk that weighs on you and your family. Dryer fires are typically the cause of a dirty or inappropriately installed vent. Another risk from dirty vents is carbon monoxide gas buildup. An appropriate cleaning will save you on the cost of electric or gas. An immaculate pipe will allow the appliance to move the appropriate amount of air through the system, allowing your clothes to dry at a faster rate without using extra power.
