Well my father started as a air force radar tech for 20 years the the senior test engineer on awacs for another 25 after get a bs and ms in ee. Its fun to watch him get a radar speeding ticket. The cool part about my father besides him being why I had my first camer before I can remember, he was part of the design team at boeing on a project that had a camera that did 10^-7 LUX.
Hey its fathers day tomorrow and I love my pops. Or im sucking up so I get the 68 mg midget. Not sure which now.

I can testify that you won't learn about electrical codes in a BSEE program. Better pick up a house wiring manual at Lowes or Home Depot. You will have a good understanding of physics however. EEs aren't technicians but a life of experimental research will make you a pretty good one.

Hot side. thats the side that shocks you when you build a lamp, test it before taping and then forget to unplug it before removing the switch right? Same side you cut to attach each wire to a nippl...uhhh never mind that last part. I am thinking I will put my retired EE father on this, give him something to do because like all engineers he doesn't have a Garage full of half done projects that his wife is yelling at him to finish.

On two wire US extension cords, the neutral side is ribbed longitudinally and the prong is wider than the one on the hot side. The hot side is the one to cut if you're going to insert something in series with the load.
