I wish the insulated ground romex was the norm. Would help out a lot, one area being AFCIs. Less chance of a hot or neutral to ground short.I have blue (more like aqua) romex in my house. It was built in 1968. I also have some romex with insulated grounding conductors in it.
Pretty sure, I was buying it for hobbies and a basement apt I wired.are you sure it wasnt before that? i know it wasnt around long, maybe 3-4 years?
