Thanks - I went the lazy DIY mans route. That item I bought I linked in the original post is an all in one deal. It's 12' and has a snap in fitting with the red bushing already attached at the end. All I should have to do is connect it to the boxes and hang it.

I believe you understood it correctly. So for wiring then with MC its:

  1. New outlet hot to existing hot
  2. New outlet neutral to existing neutral
  3. New outlet ground to existing outlet box

That would be to code and no issues? If I have it popped open already and the wire on hand should I bother wiring the existing outlet to ground or is it just irrelevant?
