In Reply to: YES. This is AC grounding. posted by cheap-Jack on April 27, 2007 at 08:36:34:
My point is that the application of the term ground is ubiquitus for circut Common. The circut will function (as a circut) without an actual Earth Ground connection, irregardless of the SAFETY or EMI/RFI benefits of likewise sharing a chassis connection to Earth for AC-operated devices. By refering to such circut Common returns as the ground, confusion per wiring schemes can arrise & often does with novices.
