grOunded tOOls: tOOls witH tHree prOng plugs
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong ground-
ing plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the tool should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to
carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.
(see 3-prong
plug and Outlet.)
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord
to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire
connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically
“live” terminal.
(see 3-prong plug and Outlet.)
Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those
in the following illustration.
(see 3-prong plug and Outlet.)
