Grounding Method - ECOSTAR WM08-700 Owner's Instruction Manual

Grounding Method

Earth wire should be connected.
If the earth wire is not connected, there is possible a danger of electric shock caused by the current leakage.
Grounding Method with Ground insert space Terminal
If the AC current outlet has a ground terminal, then separate
grounding is not required. Note that AC power outlet configuration
may differ from country to country.
Caution
Most appliances recommend they be placed upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single outlet circuit
which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or
damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are
dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire. Practically examine the cord of
your appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of
the appliance, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized servicer.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched,
closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets and the point where the
cord exists the appliance.
Other Grounding Method
Burying Copper Plate
Connect the Ground Wire to a Ground Copper Plate and bury
it more than 75 cm in the ground.
Using Ground Wire
