[quote=Anonymous]The older systems with 2-prong outlets are usually grounded. They often have a metal tube that the wires run through and those are tied in to various points in the house that are connected to ground. Lots of people spend tons of money having their entire house rewired needlessly because they don't understand this. You probably would need a heavy up if not much work has been done. You can buy an device at Home Depot that tells you whether each outlet is wired correctly or not. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-GFCI-Outlet-Circuit-Analyzer-Tester-CE-GFI6500/305286301?MERCH=REC-_-pipsem-_-206212329-_-305286301-_-N&#product-overview[/quote]
