| Mar 23, 2011 at 14:24 | comment | added | longneck | ok, sure, it's not safe. but what does that have to do with your question? you asked about mapping out your outlets to figure out how they are wired. that's what my instructions are for. once you have the map, you can pull off spar outlets and look at the gauge of the wire. | |

| Mar 23, 2011 at 3:03 | comment | added | longneck | untrue. it would be difficult to identify spars properly, but a spar would not interfere with correctly ordering the outlets on a ring. | |
