Gary, See http://kropla.com/electric2.htm for types of socket outlets used in the United Arab Emirates. You will note that they have two types of outlets there; one with and the other without earthing means; hence the two types of cord sets.

I may be missing the obvious here. I have a small UPS heading to Dubai. The requirement is for a British style fused plug. The UPS itself, is ungrounded and smack full of agency approvals. When I asked the vendor for a power cord he provided two, one with the ground pin, and the hot and neutral pins. The ground pin isn't connected to anything at the equipment end. The second configuration, and the one I anticipated getting, didn't have the ground pin on the input, or wall outlet side of the power cord. Maybe I'm missing something obvious here, but I see no application for a floating ground pin on the wall outlet side of this connector given that it isn't carried through to the equipment which it is powering? What am I missing? Gary ------------------------------------------- This message is from the IEEE EMC Society Product Safety Technical Committee emc-pstc discussion list.
