Non grounded receptacles

IN a home built in 1960 a home inspector told the home owner the non gronded receptacles would need to grounded i cannot find this in the NEC.

to clarify, if you are referencing a two wire receptacle with no ground slot, you will find no NEC requirement to change it to a grounding type receptacle.

without knowing the details of the installation, the inspector is correct if the 2 wire circuit has a three prong receptacle on it.

Take a look at 406.3. You will find evidence that the inspector is wrong.
