Re: [motm] 2 prong outlets

2002-02-06 by thomas white

Don't know how well this will apply to you, but I removed the old wall 
outlets and replaced them with 3 prongers. The ground I needed happened to 
already be hooked up to the mount casing of the old outlets and my newly 
installed sockets are all 100% grounded and up to par. The 6 outlet adapter 
will only ground to the current sockets if they are mounted in grounded 
enclosures within the wall. Mine works great BTW. Otherwise it might be/show 
a false ground and you will be no better off! It sure is intimidating to 
turn off the power to the whole house and still touch the wires bare handed 
(even knowing they're dead) Good luck,

Thomas White
