I had written this post in another way but I think I confused some people. I was wiring a plug cord into a dishwasher and the ground on the splice box was a cup (stake?) with notches around the side and a hex nut going through it into the box. I was told that this is for stranded wire. I just stuck the tinned stranded ground wire through the notch to the other side of the cup and cinched it down. I hope I am not required to also wrap around the ground nut and then stick the conductor back around through the notch under the cup. I will have to redo it! I will not have access to this dishwasher and just want to make sure I did it safely. Thanks and sorry for the long
