Does this have a ground wire?

No, it does not. It is simply a black 18 AWG and white 18 AWG wrapped in the brown braided material.

Correction...my mistake . It takes does not have a ground wire. It grounds itself when bolted to the car. In my case, I have a fiberglass body so I had to run a ground wire to the bolt. All in all easy install, and for those who claimed bad reception probably should check their power connection. This thing is awsome!!

You do not need a ground connection. Just a hot line and a neutral connection.

No, it has no electrical wiring at all. You'll need a separate surge protector or power strip.

As I recall, the switch has 3 wires that need to be connected. One wire is connected to the power source (hot), one wire is connected to the neutral, and the third wire goes to the load (light or receptacle, or device). This switch requires a neutral connection. I do not recall a ground wire or connection. I have used this device for a year, and found it to work just as advertised. The wire leads are 12 gauge wire.

I grounded my switch to the box and it works perfectly. I don't have ground wires either. You do need a neutral wire.

No it did not. I bought these because the image showed that they did. I had to toss them because grounding is required at MSHA regulated sites.

Yes, it has a ground post right next to the RCA output jacks, and the supplied RCA cable has both the right and left channel RCA connectors and a ground wire.

I think that by code, it is required to be grounded in a new installation. There may be an exception when installed into existing wiring, depending upon your local regulation. This unit does require a neutral (white usually) wire in the box. Many times the missing neutral is the problem...not the missing ground. It may be possible to ground it to the box.

No! Not out of the box it doesn't. It does not come with any wire attached. It has to either be wired into the household electrical system or have a cord with a plug on the end wired to it.

I do not know. I ended up not using it because it required an additional ground wire, which I do not have.

It has a two prong plug. Check with the manufacturer to see if it has built in ground protection.

There is no ground wire provided with the timer but the timer bracket is metal and the instructions are to attach house ground to the bracket.

My previous set up was 3 wires. 2 hot and a ground. I did a few searches and was told that this unit did not need the ground wire so I left it disconnected as there is no place to connect it. The unit has been working fine for 8+ months now.

It's a three prong plug, so if concerned about safety; yes it needs a ground (three prong outlet). As far as dedicated circuit, its powerful, but not like an big industrial motor, so dedicated circuit is not needed.

No it does not have a ground faults, you have plug in to an power strip with ground fault protection .
