House with non grounded outlets
A house I am purchasing was built in the late 50's and has several outlets that are not grounded. The inspector suggested I install GFIC outlets. Do I need to replace all non grounded outlets with gfic outlets or can i just replace one for each circuit breaker like you do for kitchens and bathrooms?

I thought/think that as long as you have non-grounded 2 prong receptacles, it meets code. Just don't install standard 3 prong recepticles. (Even with a phantom ground)

Find a good electrician to confirm.
