How to make light switch/outlet connection.
Can someone please assist me?
This is what I have so far…I have the source (20 amp) coming into the switch box. I have the light fixture box wire coming into the switch box. I have the outlet box wire coming into the switch box.
My light switch is just a single pole.
Please tell me if I’m correct with these connections.
From the source in the switch box, all this takes place: I have to pigtail the black wire to the light switch and to the black outlet wire. From the source I have to pig tail the white wire to the light fixture wire and to the outlet wire. From the source I have to pigtail the ground to the light switch, the light fixture wire, and the outlet. Lastly I have to connect the black light wire to the light switch.
Thank you!
Can you show pics.
Yup, that's right.
A little less confusingly:
All the grounds together
All the whites together
Source black to receptacle black & pigtail
Pigtail to one pole of the switch
Light fixture black to the other pole of the switch.
BTW, "pigtail" means a short length of wire, not just any & all wirenut connections.

Who are you trying to fool with the signature?
Frenchie - That's actually a lot less confusing - thanks!! Smiling here!!
Mike - Warrior got confused, so I thought I'd clear thing up with the tagline. You think I'm a woman? I'd be a pretty ugly woman... although I don't think I'm doing too bad for a 40-year-old guy.

Really? My feminist older sister would take that as a compliment to her influence on me, growing up...
You mean sounded like, right?
BTW, you got me in trouble with my wife for posting her pic w/o asking first.
