What type of cable is used to feed the box? If it is armored cable (bx), then the ground is already there and should have a ground path. If it is sheathed electrical cable then the groung should be connected somewhere. In my house the guy who wired it connected the grounds on the outside, back of the box.It was inspected and passed back in 1959. Do you have either sheathed electrical cable or bx? |
