    3 wire 240. One being ground, the other two being hot from each pole of the panel. Commented May 22, 2016 at 22:48

    Is this "3 wire 240V" going to a dryer or range? That's not a ground, that's a neutral. That uses the "NEMA 10 loophole" to bootleg ground to dryers and ranges. It's leeeegal, but is still bootlegging, and unsafe for below reasons. Commented Mar 28, 2018 at 16:27
