I have a couple of rental properties with K&T (sometimes referred to as

most
part, Europe does not reference their power systems to ground and use 220
distribution. They have fewer lightning problems, can use smaller
conductors,
have plugs that disconnect before anyone can touch prongs. Safety is
less a
problem. GFCI's are not required outside and in wet areas.


Like I said B4, this electrical grounding is just bull****.
I never ground nutin', honey.
