grounding conductor and grounding plug.  The plug 

must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is 

properly installed and grounded in accordance with

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding 

conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.  Check 

with a qualified electrician or service person if you are
