I am sorry but I want to add two cents to the message by erik who sez’ : "" Pangea cables with removable ground pins are a safety hazard in multiple ways and should not be purchased or used. ""
Now exactly why if one is NOT removing the ground pin. The pin is very tight, and hard to remove except with a screwdriver (the tip of the ground pin had a slot for a screwdriver and the rubber around the base is very tight).
I know this because I just bought some of the Pangea AC14XL with the ground pin removal mechanism. Since I agree any equipment with a ground built into the box should utilize said ground. I certainly have no plan on removing the pin. (though if I used it with a product which has only the two prong type, whether I remove the ground pin is my business.) Why exactly am i in danger of owning said cord? Perhaps you think mysterious aliens might beam down and remove my ground pins while I sleep.. My mortal enemies breaking in and stealing the ground pins? I would like to know???
The fact folks drive a car at all is a thousand time more dangerous, And according to erik.’a train of thought.. no one should ever be allowed to do so... Just in case hey?? But erik clearly thinks you all are total idiots. so thus incapable of handling your own needs and priorities.. You clearly need to be protected... for your own good of course. So never touch anything electrical. or which can move fast, but might give you a tummy ache. Have Mommy or Daddy do it FOR you. Be safe. Better yet, call erik. Have him do it for you. Don’t touch that light switch! Call erik.
As for the original fooling around with AC grounds? As mentioned, best cure is everything from one AC duplex, or pair or even quad of duplex each/all with common ground inside.
