This is a first for me. We were troubleshooting some non-working outlets in a single wide (I believe) and came across these receptacles.

This is the assembled receptacle/junction box.

Front view disassembled.

Rear view disassembled. Note the push in terminations for each conductor.

These are "AMP" brand (Harrisburg, PA.) Didn't see any UL listing.

BTW - How do you get the pictures to be so small and neat? I tried using the insert tag and they were hugenormous.

Before you upload them into your PhotoBucket album, click the 'options' thing I have pointed to here, and pick a size. 640x480 is nice for forums, or you can go smaller. It will automatically resize your stuff to that size when you upload each time.

That crap and the connections underneath a double wide are always failing. Notice on a double wide that all 220 circuits are on the same side as the panel.

Maybe George can add this to my post in the FAQs about posting images.

George?
