Electrical wiring Household skills

Power Grid All electrical devices in your home are physically connected to a power generating facility You will not be able to turn anything on if that connection is broken

Montana power resources Montana Quick Facts Montana accounts for about 4 percent of total U.S. coal production and delivers coal to markets in more than 15 States. The Williston Basin covers eastern Montana (as well as western North Dakota) and contains two of the Nation’s 100 largest oil fields. Montana is one of the top hydroelectric power producers in the United States. Seven of Montana’s 10 largest generating plants run on hydroelectric power.

Household wiring Three wires-all must be connected –Copper (green)= ground usually bare –White= neutral –Black= hot

Always set up wire so it wraps around the screw in a clockwise motion
