not require a safety connection to electrical earth (US: ground).

Plugging in for power  AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY: 100–240 V ~ 50/60 Hz
The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other) and only fits 
into AC power outlets one way. If the plug will not go into the outlet completely, 
turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it still does not fit, contact 
a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt 
to bypass this safety feature.
