However, that doesn't make me qualified to mess around with electrical wiring. I'm not trying to say a lot of others are in my boat, but I'm sure some are.

Could I wire up a switch if my snakes were gonna' be morts in the morning if I didn't, sure, but I really think that's taking your point out to edge of the cornfield.
No I think that was my point. Necessity is the mother of invention.

I have hooked up many light switches for walls as they all had receptacles for ground wires and 3 pronged plugs. My concern was whether I needed a ground wire hooked up to the UTH as it only has a 2 prong plug. I was concerned about electrical shocks as I was unsure if the dimmer needed to be grounded.

Anyways, I'm working on getting the 2nd tank set up as I type this.

And again, thank-you for all your help guys

All of my do it yourself wiring projects are with romex or heavy duty computer cables if I need a male plug. Since I have the ground there I use it. When you can ground.

Everything is cool. We just all really love our animals. Some of us get a bit passionate at times that's all.
