Ground a cloth covered wire w/no ground?
Heard something that must be an “Urban Legend” story about grounding circuits for residential cloth covered old 2 wire outlets that has no ground wire.
“A really good electrician told me”…….. starts the claim, that grounding can be achieved via the cloth covering since it contains asbestos!
Yeah, asbestos the insulator.
Anyone else ever heard this claim?

If I'd ever heard it I would have fallen on the floor laughing.
