Yes and note that most household timers offered in the box stores don't
accept three-prong plugs but this one does.

I get around that by splitting a duplex receptacle - feed power to
one receptacle - thru timer to short two wire (polarized) cord
feeding the other receptacle into which the load is plugged. OTOH,
Noma has a nice, digital unit, but I loses it's program if the power
goes off.
