60 Hz grounded outlet protected with a
15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
The 3-prong grounding plug minimizes the possibility
of electric shock hazard. If the wall outlet you plan to
use is only a 2-prong outlet,
it is your responsibility to hove it replaced with
o properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.

overheating wires.
