Before:
There are actually a couple runs of relatively modern grounded, albeit still old and crappy, grounded wire in my basement, including one powering my shed that ran right next to this outlet, and its shitty old ungrounded black cloth cable. I hijacked that and repurposed it for this outlet.
So, no shed power currently, but this first job gave me the confidence and motivation to tackle the rest of the house now.
I think they’re referring to the more intrusive thought of putting the USB-C plug into the phase side of the 120V socket.
Hopefully if it does fit in height/width, it doesn’t have the length to reach anything metal.
Don’t tell me that the world could have had smaller USB-C plugs and they’re only that big so USians don’t try to push them into their sockets.
