Executive summary:
replacing two wire residential outlets and conforming to current grounding regs requires getting an approved conductor back to the GEC
What is acceptable for a conductor and clamping method?
Cold water pipes further than 5' from the entrance are not acceptable
so it must be a nearby panel or some EMT
What's the bonding method? Can this really still just be a bare #14 going to a clamp?
I'm sorry. I still don't get it.
If you have two wires to an old outlet
I thought you could replace that with a GFI outlet - either for the three prongs or just for a new outlet.
Inspector in this jurisdiction will apparently not accept a gfi outlet, rather
Inspector requires grounding at the outlet.
It looks like I will get a nmc back to a subpanel. that's fine.
Just don't understand.
He quotes
Correct the ungrounded or open-ground condition in the bathroom receptacle wiring (SFEC Section 89.116, 89.126 and 406.3)
I don't even find a section 406.3
The other sections are talking about grandfather.
This is K&T here... oh well...
