    LJ,

    I need help with your question. There are no details given!

    Where do you want the opening cut to put in the new receptacle? Where are you going to get your supply for the receptacle? What amperage are you going to need?

    What is a receptacle and amperage? Those terms are new to me...

    I am not trying to be offensive, but before you go any further, you need to educate yourself on electricity and related terms.

    I suggest that you pick up some household wiring books and read up on this subject.

    I also strongly suggest that you call a licensed electrician to do this work for you.

    Sure, I think that's a decent advice. I will call an electrician.

    Thanks a lot
