Tips on replacing a receptacle: Check the service panel for the breaker size in the circuit. Install a receptacle with an amperage rating that matches the breaker. Then shut off the power. Pull the receptacle out. Loosen the terminal screws, and pull out the wires. If any wire ends appear damaged, cut them back, strip and bend into a loop. Attach wires to the new receptacle in the same configuration as the old. Wrap the receptacle with the electrician's tape to cover all exposed wire and terminal screws. Connect the receptacle to the box with the two screws.

If you have an old ungrounded receptacle (common in Dallas) with only two slots and no grounding hole, it may actually be grounded. To test, remove the cover plate. Insert one prong into the short slot and touch the other to the metal box. If it glows, the box is grounded. You can install a grounded receptacle even though there is no grounding wire. Metal sheathing or conduit will provide the ground.

If the tester glows with one prong in the long slot and the other touching the box or the cover plate's screw, the box is grounded but the receptacle is not polarized. Install a grounded receptacle and wire it correctly. If the tester does not glow during any of these tests, the box is not grounded. Do not install a grounded receptacle.
