RAN THE WIRER JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE HOT GOES ON SCREW WHERE DOES THE WHITE GO ON THE SLOT AND GROUND GOES TO BOX

black goes to the screw on the breaker, white and ground go to the bus bars in the box for 110, usually all the whites go to one bar and the grounds go to the other. By the way don't ask the Inspector, if you do he will be forced to admit he has no freakin idea and that will make matters worse for you.

If you trace one breaker backward you will see that one end goes to the hot line where power comes into the box. The other side will go to the same connection electrically as the ground. At the circuit box, ground and neutral are eventually connected to the same potential.

The white goes to the buss bar with many screws in it. The ground can go to the box itself.

Look on the inside of the cover. GE and all other manufacturers place a wiring diagram in each and every device. They are required toby law. If it is not there, take it back to the place of purchase and get another.

HI ,
I would hook the black wire on the gold connection and the white on the ground bar that has the holes in it.Make sure that bar is grounded well. Also make sure the breaker is large enough for the wire you are using.Also wire is large enough to handle load{ amps}.
good luck

This is a serious question. If you are requesting this much help, you should contact an electrician or a good handy-man. I just went though an awful experience with a handy-man who didn't know what he was doing. I had to hire another one to redo everything. Sooooooooo, be sure he knows his stuff and is not just Bull S......, you

If you don't know such fundamentals you should not be doing this work. Did you get the permit as required? If so your inspector should be able to help. Otherwise get an electrician.
