It is *especially* a good idea to have GFI if there is no ground.
Another thing to watch, when i recently went to get some GFCI outlets,
all the ones at the store had a "safety feature" that said the outlet

check the box if you decide to go this route.


"without proper grounding" or without proper wiring?
