Buying a slightly older house ('56). There have been some electrical upgrades but most of the outlets are 2-prong, non-grounded (except for outlets near a water source). How important is it to ground them? Can it be done at each outlet (assuming there is a ground wire)? Not sure if that's clear, but I'm an electrical idiot. Thanks in advance for replies. :)
