I moved into this house a year ago and new things pop up all the time. Just last week I opened up a box in our mudroom and I found a furry little helper draped across the hot and neutral of the keyless.
Today I break the pullchain on the light in our foyer and decide to fix it while I had some time. I open up the box and find 2 older black wires that are no longer in use with a newer 12/2 romex. There are also no wirenuts. ????Hmmm?
The hot and neutral wires were crimped together with ground crimps. The same used to crimp romex grounds together. Then it was wrapped many times with electrical tape. Well, I decided that this will not work and used wirenuts as I put it all back together.
It makes me wonder what I may not be seeing.
