not fit the power outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.

earthing / grounding conductor (earthing pin) and a grounding

result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.

separation.
