    I wonder if T. could strip out the romex and BX for the bare bright inside. Could make a little extra that way.



    The trend is to go 4 prong on 220 V. these days. Not up on the codes but i think you've got to have two hots, one ground, and a safety neutral ? The three prong cords might be obsolete ? They yield a little bit of brass and about .13 lbs of # 2 copper per foot when you strip them out. They're not hard to do and it all adds up over time.
