Grounding ext. lights hung after vinyl siding installed?
Wednesday, November 19th, 2008Richard C asked:
I recently had vinyl siding installed on my house. Guys wrapped tyvek and added blue insulation first. Then they put mounting plates in the appropriate spots and hung all but one light for me. I got a new light and found they only left a black and white wire extending through a small hole in the foam insulation for the light. Do I need to worry about grounding it? I have an older house with bx, no ground wire. How about all the rest of the lights and floods they installed? I assume they did them the same way.
Thanks.
