Sorry, didn't have another way to say it. Anyway, while hacking the
drywall to see if the old Romex was stapled to the wall I got plaster on
the wire side of the outlet. Made me wonder, if I have old drywall dust
on the outlet is that a fire hazard? Sweeping it away is of course an
option and I did but at the time it fell on the outlet it was live and I
didn't want to get electricuted.

I know drywall is fire rated, but is it a conductor of electricity?

Not combustable or conductive. Just vacuum or blow it out


Please do not say "Blow". You are turning me on and makeing me hard.
