I've also seen a moulder US 115V plug wit
hthe earth pin cut off,
presumably so it would go into a 2 pin socket. Ouch!.
Ouch indeed. I've got one of those. Well, not "cut off", more like
"pulled out" - there's a hole in the plastic of the right size to hold
the missing pin. I've been wondering what to do
with it; the thing on
the other end of the cord is a six-outlet power bar, which would be
convenient, but I'm not comfortable using such a thing without working
Can you dismantle the power strip to make sure hte ground is connencted
between the sockets and to the input cable at that end? If so, why not
just rempalce the plug?
