Best to not confuse the two.

Yep, I didn’t wire the switch the builder did. That’s about the 3 improper wiring I’ve found in my house. I checked all the plug in sockets when I moved in and found two wired backwards.

Only way to check switches take covers off and look see in wired correctly, there no circuit tester that will show that that I am aware of?
