I have a light switch that has 2 prongs on the backside, and both have an orange wire to it. How do I determine which is the Hot side and which is the switched side? Or is one Hot and the other Grou...
You should pull the fuse for that circuit as arcing when working on the switch can blow a fuse. Also you should due to safety reasons, it is a good habit to always de-energize the circuit.
