It is grounded. All items of this nature are grounded, required by lawor it could not be sold. The 3 prong male plug on these units are the same rating as the 3 prong Daisy Chain female receptacles.

Hello,The plug is grounded. This is the same with the 2ft versions as well. Hope that helps!

Mine came with a regular plug with a ground. Seems like they might have sent you the wrong one. Take the time to have them fix it...I still love mine and use it several times a week!

I'm not having grounding noise issues. Are you sure the feeding devices are properly grounded?

I tried plugging it into a two prong adapter, and then plugged the two prong into my outlet. My outlet is grounded since it is a 3 prong outlet, but not sure that would matter since two prong adapter doesn't have a ground plug. Anyway, that worked with no issues.

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

The cord has a grounded plug on the cord, you just have to plug it into a grounded outlet. I'm not sure what the bonded means.

Not sure about that as mine is negative ground. That said, it should be ground polarity insensitive by reversing the connections.

Yes, this unit will only work when it's grounded. Always follow the manufactures instructions when wiring.

Direct wire for sure. I don't recall there also being a plug. Could there be 2 models?

I do not think it was a grounded plug. Unfortunately I tossed the fan when it rusted so badly so I cannot check for sure. But to be fair, I live in Hilo, HI - lots of things rust here.I went with a full plastic fan the next time.

It seems to have a ground wire, probably with the properly grouding the protector will continue functioning. I had some issues with the same happening in the modem here "blowing modems away". The only save is ground it. May other way works for the fine line, normalizing it and sending back to the currency. But it for a thunder, it's something really destructible.

his will not take out a bad grounding situation!! power conditioners do not do that. what your hearing is 60hz hum, meaning that the circuit in your system has started a loop, also if its audio, make sure to use only balance connections or isolation transformers! try using one outlet for your gear and make sure nothing else is sharing the same circuit

The manual clearly warns against connecting this to an ungrounded unit. An ungrounded outlet is not only a safety risk to what you plug in it, but also completely negates any benefit of a surge protector.

Both would need to be plugged in. When you daisy chain you are just sending the signal from one speaker to another. So yes they both have to be plugged in and turned on.

I'm not an electrician, but I would think it would need to be grounded... otherwise where would the surge go? I happened to have an electrician in my house for other things when this arrived, so I asked him how I should ground this. He just took it and hooked it up to the neutral/grounding wire in a nearby unused outlet and said it is now grounded with the rest of the house. I can still use that outlet too.

This item, completely made of plastic, is not made to be grounded. It is for use in DC circuits like automobiles, boats, etc. That is why only the positive wire is distributed through it.

Tripp Lite tech support is great. it is grounded. I have this exact unit and use it as a backup to my Xantrax
