Working at loml's cafe to be tonight.
In the basement I had a circuit with 2 outlets and 3 ancient flourescent light fixtures. 24" tubes with pull chains. First one worked, 2nd didn't last one had no power.
.
Cloth covered 12-2 with the dinky ground wire. 1st outlet was a 2 prong, no ground.
Shut off breaker, open the recptacle box. By the time I got the outlet out......just fell apart in my hands.
Guess I'm totally re-wiring a circuit.
