my wall has 2 lines, 2 loads, and a copper ground wire. is there a place to connect the ground to?

Connect the ground you have screwed to the heater to the supply ground. The thermostat doesn't need a ground but the heater does.

No, the thermostat doesn't have a ground and the heater itself is grounded in its own junction box. Make sure your lines and loads are correctly connected to the tstat and you are OK.

You would still need to ground it separately. Usually you can find a suitable ground very close to the fuse box.

There is no ground wire connection but I just unscrewed one of the cover screws to connect the ground screw, hum problem gone.

I think it's just a 2 prong connection, should be a switched hot and a ground

Good question. I can tell you it will not accodate standard 14 gauge soild copper wiring. if you are using this in your house you will need to connect a smaller gauge wire to the romex wiring. the connection terminals are very small on the supply side

As I recall it just had two; a black and a white. No ground wire. It is for lamps rather than house wiring.

Yes. Connections made to bottom set of metal prongs. Top ones are plastic, for alignment only. This assumes the usual household installation of the wall socket where ground pin is at the bottom. In commercial installations, the wall socket is often inverted so the ground pin is at the top.

I had no issues with a two wire install. I grounded it locally to the outlet gang box

Looking at the wall with the ground plug down, the cable is to the right.Took a picture: http://i44.tinypic.com/24qljr5.jpg

See Karlberg's comment. Also, both studs are for Positive inputs. There are no Negative (ground) terminals.

I would have to suggest a ground wire was NOT attached to the wall outlet. Many people install wall outlets, but if the house has older wiring, there may not be a ground wire. You can remove the front plate and try to see if there is a ground wire attached to the outlet. Good luck.

If you are in the US it has a standard wall plug without the ground, so the plug has two prongs.

You can get a 2/3 wire adapter but you are not getting the protection of a ground wire. Am not an electrician so that's the best I can do.
