tamper resistant sockets in a rental

[Nathan Williams]

newly flipped duplex I purchased has tamper resistant sockets are they are a huge pain to plug anything in.  This is my first time dealing with these and initially thought they were defective sockets or something.  Even after figuring out what was going on some of these sockets are still incredibly hard to plug in and Im pretty handy.  My concern is my future tenants are going to have an even harder time than me using these.  Anyone have experience having these in their rentals?  I plan to just explain these are new code sockets that are for their safety and they will just have to deal with it.

I am an Electrician and i find that you need to have a 3 prong plug for the TP outlets to work smoothly. Yes they are a pain but necessary for child safety. I would keep them.
