Why dont i see a wire connected ( wrapped around) any of my top copper screws?

[kvdgadj]

Have live wire and two load wire, what light switch to buy?

[davidhotin]

Since when do we put neutral wires on a switch without marking as hot with black tape? Bad example to set.

I wish he had mentioned which screw received the black (hot) wire and which screw received the white wire. Maybe it doesn’t make a difference?

[Noahsoak]

Does it matter which wire goes to which brass screw (excluding ground).
