All,
 
Consider two power supplies, both AC230V to DC12V:
PS1 - with basic insulation and one of its output terminals grounded with
protective conductor,
PS2 - with double or reinforced insulation and floating output.
 
I understand that PS1 is CLASS I equipment, and PS2 is CLASS II equipment.
 
Now consider the 12V powered device connected to one of them.
Is that device CLASS III equipment in both cases?
 
Best Regards
