  1. You guys might have save me a fire or even worst, my plasma, thanks. I'll find an electrician to change the panel.
  2. Yeah, I guess you are right. frying my new plasma TV is not worth it.[:-weepn] . It's just look simple, since there are only three cables to run and connect. I just have this in mind that I just shut off the main breaker, install a new breaker, connect hot to breaker, ground to ground and neutral to neutral and then pad myself in the back.[:-crazy] It all start when I wanted to mount my tv, then one thing leads to another. I wire up on my surround system in the wall, wire all my audio viceo componentts in the closet with flasher. I even got myself a universal remote. All I see is my tv on the wall and the annoying dangling plasma power cord. So I fish the electrical wire and install an outlet on the back of my wall mounted tv and run the wire to the panel . Then I open the panel and got confuse. Oh well, I probably just jump it. I guess I in over my head. I blame my new found confidence on my recent hire as a Comcast cable guy. []
  3. I'm not confident at what I label are correct. I learning as I go. No, that is the main panel for my house. So if I run an electrical wire to the panel, where does the neutral wire and ground wire go to? From what I read, the ground wire goes to the bare copper wire side (blue circle) and the neutral wire goes to the neutral bar (green circle). But from the existing wiring, it seems it doesn't really mater where the neutal wire goes to? thanks hausdok and ghentjr for point it out that panel is a fire trap. Image Insert: 72.34 KB
  4. Is there something wrong with this picture? Allot of my outlets doesn't have the ground. So there are two wires going to my service panel, one neutral and one hot. When I open my panel, it looks like the three neutral wires are connecting to the ground bar and one going to the neutral bar. Am I right? If so, is this the wrong way of wiring it? I open it up because I want to run a dedicate electrical outlet for my plasma and sound system. When I turn on my hair dryer and plasma screen, sometimes the electricity shuts off.
