Solution for ungrounded outlet leaking voltage into cable TV line.?
Several of the outlets in our home are 2 prong, no ground wire available and not wired with armored cable. One outlet supplying power to our cable box is causing voltage to leak into the cable TV line. We've had a lot of problem with our cable tv and cable internet and they found the problem was almost 50 volts running through the cable like. They traced the source back to the ungrounded cable box. Can I remedy this with a GFCI outlet or will it need a rewire? Thanks!

Contact a local qualified professional electrician to do a service on your system. At some location in your system there is a loose or corroded neutral connection. The GFI is not a likely solution to your problem.
