I live in a apt. Two of my three prong electrical outlets were not showing up grounded when I plugged my surge protector into them. I need to plug computers and an air conditioner in, so we called the office and they sent their fix it guy, who is not an electrician. In the end, he came over with some wire and attached a ground wire from the one good electrical outlet to the other one outlet. The wire he attached goes around the walls of the room like a cable wire to the other outlet.
Since he has done this, I keep noticing weird lighting on the T.V. Peoples faces are grey and maybe even tiny distortion from time to time. It's hard to see for some people, but this is a good T.V and the picture was perfect.
Should he have fixed the problem using a ground wire from a good outlet, to fix the other two? Can it cause problems with my T.V. or other electrical equipment?
