"Floating ground" and Electraglide Fat Man p. c.?


Is there any way that I can confirm that my Electraglide Fat Man 2000 Gold power cord has a "floating ground"?

Dear Mshan, use a multimeter and check the impedance between the (2)grounds. (1) on the plug and (1)on the IEC (middle contact on both). Switch the multimeter to the Omega. If it is zero or close to it, you are grounded, if it reads infinite, you're floating. Hope this helps!

Just received 2 Fat Man Ks from a dealer on Audiogon.
Both have faulty or non-existent ground/earth terminals.
Needless to say this is potentially dangerous, and could also degrade sound quality.
A fairly knowledgeable poster at audioasylum responded recently there to this same thread over there that this cord comes standard with no ground and that grounded cords are made only on request. FWIW, many of the cords that I've used have sounded much better with floating grounds. Safety, I guess is another issue.
