Auto Carpet Extractor
wow, can I use this on my delorean too?
Does the current 220 dryer plug have 3 or 4 brass prongs?
4 means you have 2 hots, neutral and ground.
3 means you have 2 hots and a ground.
You should really add a new receptacle box for the washer - most electric dryers are on a 30 amp circuit. When the dryer is set to high heat, it can pull close to 30 amps. If you are washing clothes at the same time and the washer is on the same circuit as the dryer, you can run into problems with the circuit breaker tripping.
If you are dead set on tapping the dryer circuit, then what you want to do is tap one of the hots (red or black wire - doesn't matter which but only one of these, not both) and the neutral and ground (4 prong) or just the ground (3 prong). Run these into a new receptacle box and wire the receptacle as appropriate.
thanks, but we solved this problem in 2008
