Safe Receptacle Replacement Workflow

Use a simulated workflow to connect tools, de-energizing, verification, colors, termination, GFCI, and final checks.

Page highlights

Recite checks before and after receptacle replacement in safe order.
Recognize LINE/LOAD, terminal colors, and grounding connection.
Know when to stop and call licensed help.
Process matters more than memorizing one diagram because real boxes vary.
Document before disconnecting so the old problem does not become a new one.
Testing after re-energizing is part of the workflow, not optional.
