Wall switch with ground wire?

[watson524]

Hi all,

Looking to install some wall switches (not 3 way, just regular ones) and I looked in where I need them to go and the existing switch has a ground wire wrapped around the green screw on the switch. Can X10 switches handle that? The one I just looked at (WS467) doesn't appear to be able to deal and I wanted to check.

thanks!

i have the same ground wire on the original switch, when i installed my x10 switch i wrapped the ground wire around one of the ears. This is my xps3 switch

Thanks for the picture. How does that sit as far as keeping that "ear" away from the wall because of the copper going through it?
