I have just purchased a house and will do some remodeling. The house was built in 1958 and has two prong electrical outlets through out. ( the kitchen was remodeled and has new three prong outlets) My question is about some strange outlets. they are the same size as normal duples outlets, two prong, but have four slots. below is the best representation I could do with out attaching a digital photo. Any thoughts as to the use of these?
