This is just what I did, You should always consult a qualified electrician before any work is done.
I misspoke Neutral and ground are not the same thing. The ground and neutral wires are connected at the main panel ONLY. NEC 2008 states that the neutral and ground wires should be “bonded” together at the main panel (only) to the grounding rod.
Old house has a 3 prong dryer cord outlet but my dryer has a 4 prong cord. So I had to change it. I kept the cord, when I rewire the house and my 220 outlets I will put a 4 prong socket on their.
This is just what I did yours may be different.
