Cygnus 2 is connected to earth ground through a sealed three-core
(three-conductor) power cable, which must be plugged into a socket outlet with a
protective earth terminal. Extension cables must always have three conductors
including a protective earth terminal.
WARNING - Risk Of Electric Shock
Never interrupt the protective earth circuit.
Any interruption of the protective earth circuit inside or
outside Cygnus 2, or disconnection of the protective
earth terminal is likely to make Cygnus 2 dangerous.
This symbol indicates where the protective earth ground
