Subject: Replacement receptacles

The Michigan electrical code would allow the installation of a GFCI type receptacle in lieu of having to replace a three wire type that is not grounded. The Michigan residential code has no provisions for this allowance and in the appendix there is specific language that three wire receptacles must be grounded or replaced with a two-wire type. Am i correct in understanding that here in Michigan we are no longer allowed to install a GFCI device to protect a three-wire receptacle that is not grounded and these must be grounded or replaced with a two-wire type??
