Problems
What if all the plugs in my house have
only two slots instead of three?
Before revisions of the code, a separate ground was not required in
most applications. Now, a separate ground is required by code. (the
third slot in plugs) It is also much safer to have this type of
plug. The plugs that have two slots can be changed out with new
plugs with three holes, but a ground will not be present. The
correct fix for this is to bring a separate ground wire to the plug
and change the plug out to a new style plug.
