I'm wiring up some outlets in my garage. I have a receptacle, wire going in the box, wire coming out and going to the next box. The receptacle is a standard receptacls, and has two screws for the neutral wire, two screws for the hot wire, but only one screw for the ground wire. I hook the hot and neutral wires to the respective screws, works fine.What is the correct way to wire up the ground wire? Can I put both of them on the same screw? It seems to be secure, but it is it the correct way to do this?
