[Fwd: Self-grounding outlets vs. grounding wire]
-------- Original Message --------
Subject: Self-grounding outlets vs. grounding wire Date: Wed, 01 Dec 2004 14:42:34 -0500 From: Phil Munro Organization: Youngstown State University http://www.YSU.edu To: HorneTD Thanks. That is good stuff to know, and I was not fully aware of this subtle change in receptacles until recently. My concern was for those who would not recognize the difference in the presence or absence of the clip. Our public sharing may be beneficial in that regards. --Phil HorneTD wrote: .... Phil Without that spring the receptacle cannot be listed as self grounding. If you thought I was advocating relying on the mounting screws of ordinary receptacles as the grounding pathway think again. I am only talking about the receptacles that have been tested by an electrical testing laboratory and listed as self grounding. -- Tom H The following was the unfortunate response to my personal e-mail to you. It just didn't seem important enough to do it that way!!! :-) --Phil This is an automatic reply to your email message to This email address is protected by EarthLink spamBlocker.
