hello group,

Regarding typical USA outlets on the walls, I have seen an outlet that has:
1. frame ground
2. white wire-neutral
3. red wire-?
4. black wire-hot

what is the purpose of the red wire?
on the outlet in question, the red and white wires are jumpered in the back of
the outlet.

in the room, the wall switch turns off both top and bottom outlets, normally a
wall switch only
affects either the top OR bottom outlet,not both. Also all 4 outlets in the
room are controlled by the one switch
is the red wire some time of connection between outlets only and not fed back
to the breaker box? that's my thought.
any ideas on this?

thanks
Richard,
