Should work

Posted by bartc on June 1, 2007 at 20:25:09:
Again, you really should consult an electrician with your concerns. In fact, you could probably consult with your local government building authority to find out how the house is grounded, being that they would have had to conform to some kind of code in the 1950s and there would have been inspections.

Meantime, if your computer, washer, etc. are all working fine, I'm not aware of any reason your CDP shouldn't work equally well for now.

I still suspect you have the BX type grounding I described, which was very very common in the post WWII era.
