You need to cut off complete bent ends and re strip. It is safer so the wire does not break and makes it easier to slip in slot.

Here in NYC I have a metal box, not plastic like yours. And also we use BX wire in all residential homes. The BX wire doesn't come with a grounding wire, it only comes with a hot and a neutral. What would be the solution to upgrade to a USB Type C receptacle if I don't a grounding wire? Hope my question is clear

I have 2 whites, 1 black, 1 red, and one ground. What is the red wire for? The red and black are both connected on the brass side. Are they both considered black even though one is red?

Would these be safe for a camper trailer?

I would have cut the ends off & put them in plus cleaned the paint off the ground wire but that's me

Plug something into the outlets and then show how to plug into the USB ports at the same time.

What exactly is the benefit of this? Products are constantly changing charging ports. This being the case, if you install one or more of these, you'll have to change them over in the future. Using a charging brick is really not an issue. I asked my electrician about these when we recently had him here installing a 20 amp circuit and he said he loved them because they have a habit of having internal issues and he makes more money fixing the situation. Even if issues never happen, you're still stuck charging your products in the location of the outlet to justify installing this. I dunno it just doesn't make sense for me. Sorry....

That was all WRONG never use the push in wire, recut the wire and wrap the wire around the screws and the same with the green 12-14-22
