Home Improvement Asked by K2xL on June 19, 2021
Just moved in. Have a three gang box trying to replace switches with smart switches (they each require neutral).
I’m unsure though how I’m supposed to wire the neutrals, since they are all bundled up into one wire nut.
I could cram the neutrals in, but that seems dumb and unsafe. Is there a recommended, safe way to do this?
You're right to be concerned about cramming the existing wirenut over its capacity. The solution, though, is to either use a larger nut/connector (such as an 8-port push-in type connector) or two smaller nuts connected to each other by a piece of white wire of the appropriate gauge.
