I am finishing an office in my basement and have never worked with Romex before. I always did the conduit and wire method. I installed outlets in an office I built and hooked the circuit to a hot line. When I checked the outlets they all said open ground except the last one in line and it showed correctly wired. That one has the ground wire connected right to the outlets grren screw. The outlets in between the correct one and where I hooked into the power all say open ground. I just twisted the ground wire together and continued down the line. I take it that is incorrect? Please advise.
