reply to John Galt

Re: Why only 1 ground terminal and 2 hot/neutral on receptacles?

said by John Galt:

The 'proper way' is to pigtail all conductors prior to connection to the device.

In my jurisdiction that is mandatory, even though the Code requires it only on MWBCs.

I don't deny the advantage of pigtailing. I'll give it a shot, see if I can tolerate the extra carpal tunnel.

Out of curiosity, what does your jurisdiction say about connecting receptacles downstream of a GFCI? Can't pigtail the load side of a GFCI right?
