Is it possible to ground the outlet in the bathroom from the cable screwed to the bathroom?
Good afternoon. There is a power outlet in the bathroom that is not grounded. But there is a cable that is screwed to the bathroom (supposedly ground). Can I forward the bus from the socket to this cable so that the socket is also grounded?

Hello! Sockets must only be grounded from a specially designed protective earth in the switchboard. And only on condition that the grounding of the wiring is correct and meets the requirements. If it is not known what kind of cable is connected to the bathroom, and how it is grounded, then you can not use it as a ground. The use of such grounding is fraught with negative consequences. In the event of a current leakage to the ground, a life-threatening potential may appear on the bathtub.
Now in new buildings, a project is used in which the gas supply pump is provided in the bathroom. From it, the pipelines in the bathroom, in the toilet, the SOCKET in the BATHROOM, and the bathtub itself are grounded. Although the socket already has a third wire. These are geniuses .... Which is especially embarrassing for the gas and water supply the outlet the incoming wires are grounded from the apartment panel from the neighboring bolts.
