Cohorts.
I may be missing the obvious here.
I have a small UPS heading to Dubai. The requirement is for a British
style fused plug. The UPS itself, is ungrounded and smack full of agency
approvals.
When I asked the vendor for a power cord he provided two, one with the
ground pin, and the hot and neutral pins. The ground pin isn't connected to
anything at the equipment end. The second configuration, and the one I
anticipated getting, didn't have the ground pin on the input, or wall outlet
side of the power cord.
Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but I see no application for
a floating ground pin on the wall outlet side of this connector given that it
isn't carried through to the equipment which it is powering?
What am I missing?
