Help with deciding necessary repairs

[Luka Jozic]

Hi everyone,

There is something I have seen in many inspection reports now and I am not sure if this is something that is really necessary to do. I understand that the inspection says its a recommended repair but is it really? Im not an electrician so I don't know how important it is to take care of this. Also what is better/cheaper, converting back to a 2 prong or ground with a GFCI?

You can just find the beginning of the run and install a GFCI at that point. Do that for each ungrounded circuit. Yes, it's important.
