Great video, but one thing I would do is make sure to test both outlets before taking the cover off to make sure there is no power to either one. Can never be too safe, especially with old houses and DIYers out there. Some outlets could be on separate breakers and you might not know it.
Great point! Exactly, can never be too safe - thanks Andrew!
Excellent video, very clear and easy to understand! Thank you! 👌
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks👌
Omg thank you!!!! You made this look so easy I have been wanting to do this but had no idea how!!! Love your channel you have helped me so much
Awesome, I’m glad to hear that Courtney! I really appreciate the support!
Does it matter which wire goes on which side? Looks like the ground wire goes on the bottom or green screw. Is the green screw standard on all outlets? Thanks so much!
If ky outlet has three hot wires and three neutrals is my only option to pigtail the three wires into one?
The usb receptacle i have is like yours and has no second screw or the push in holes in the back.
Not necessarily, to cut the power off . I have , worked with the power on .
