What are the implications if someone grabs a different IEC320 power cord, with 3 conductors and 3 pins on the wall outlet end? Would the product still meet safety requirements? I saw a product once that was double-insulated, and they removed the ground pin from the _IEC320_receptacle_ (on the equipment). You could use any power cord, regardless of whether it had a ground wire. Very strange looking. Pat Lawler [email protected]
