Apart from the water bond, there is no grounding. All receptacles are two-prong. The only bath recep is part of the light over the mirror. The main room, with almost fifty feet of perimeter, has exactly one receptacle. The only kitchen receptacle shares a single-gang box with a switch for the exhaust fan. It sure is a different world over there! The whole thread is he http://electrical-contractor.net/ubb...ML/000135.html NT |
