I bought 3 of these fans. They worked wonderful and about 3 weeks later, junk!!! All 3. Do NOT buy this!

The plug that I received had a three-pronged plug (for the plug that goes into the wall). So it had the grounding prong, if that's what you're asking about.

No problem, Susan. In point of fact, it *is* grounded, in a manner of speaking. Grounded to the grid, as it were. Suffice to say (and avoid allot of chatter about how AC differs from DC) that you're not going to get zapped by your sprouter. Or if you do, your electric company is to blame. The sprouter has a litany of faults all its own, but if it's certified by Underwriters Labs (which it must be), electrocuting its owners isn't among them (that I'm aware of). In all likelihood your motor will die long before any of this becomes an issue. Mine died within a month as I recall.

It screws into a lamp socket. Ours is a ceiling fan with lights. The socket may be grounded for protection, but the bulb just needs standard 115/120 V 60 Hz AC.

No, mine does not have three prong plug. FYI. This is a very loud fan on high. I bought it for my bathroom and not an office. On the second speed, I can stand the noise. And otherwise liked the size and look of it.

Mine has three. Wouldn't make any sense for it to take grounded plugs and then straight up not ground them!

It does not...mine came with just two wires...+12VDC and Ground. It's also VERY loud. Not a 110/120VAC fan.

The Fan is set up to be hard wired. You can wire a 3 wire "pigtail" plug on it with no problem. You can get a cord like this at any electrical supply store or home improvement box store like home depot or Lowes. If you want a dryer fan pre-wired and ready to go, you would want to order a DBF 4XL by Fantech

No this is a two prong plug designed for indoors only and is not safe to use outdoors because it is not grounded. Please do not use this outdoors. Only use three prong plugs for outdoor use.

115V, 60Hz, 15- or 20 amp fused 3 prong grounded outlet according to owners manuel

It is a 3 prong connection. Plugging into a 2 prong adapter may defeat the purpose of the surge protection

No I wired both fans on....it was designedb for one...but I made two work. ..I just put a 20 amp fuse to prevent spikes in voltage

You can wire the fan either way. It just depends on what you have for the electrical connection now. The connecting wire is not included with the fan. I used the one that was already installed with my old fan. It has a normal 3 prong plug. Since the plug and wire don't move once the fan is installed, the old wire was like new.

Just regular wall electrical plug. 110. I love this fan. I've had it for several months now and it blows amazing amounts of air.

I installed this on a motorhome that has a series wired 12v system from 2 6v batteries. If by negative grounded you mean grounding to the negative terminal on the battery, I have had no problems.

120 volt and it was installed exactly where the previous unit had been. It required a couple of adjustments in the installation to stop any vibration. You can hear the fan when it is on in either exhaust or heat mode.
