in accordance with the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-Latest Revision (for
the U.S.) or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA

Grounding
This dryer must be grounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, the ground will reduce
the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of
least resistance for the electrical current.
