The 4 prong dryer outlet wiring diagram above is ran with a 10 3 with ground cable. As you can see there is now an added dedicated neutral. This size breaker requires a minimum of a 10 gauge wire so this wire used would be a 10 2 with ground. This circuit originates from the breaker box containing a 2 pole 30 amp breaker. But if you notice both the neutral and the ground wires both connect to the same ground bar inside the panel box. How a 3 wire dryer outlet circuit looks. The ground is now a dedicated wire also. Look for two brass screws on the receptacle and connect the red and black wires to these screws. You need three 10 awg wires for dryer outlet wiring. The third wire may be white green or bare and it connects to the ground bus in the panel.
With the four wire outlet mandated in 1996 figure 2 however the nec realized that replacing old existing outlets and their wiring could prove to be much too invasive and costly in older homes that would have to be upgraded to the new 4 wire system and it was decided that the three prong outlets would remain code compliant but when faced with the dilemma of installing a newer dryer and.
