Hi, guys. Following up on the thread in the link below. When last we spoke, I needed to figure out how many/what wires are
inside the box for the light switch. I finally peeked today. As you probably can see in the attached pics, there are four
wires coming from the conduit into the box. I suspect they include (a) hot, (b) load, and (c) two neutrals. Seems like
there may not be a ground wire in there:-/
I imagine that the lack of a ground wire would not impede installing the switch/receptacle combo, though I assume it could
compromise safety.
I also looked inside the box for one of my existing receptacles, and I see that does have a ground wire.
Again, welcome any thoughts.
Thanks!
Neil
