Rita, Yes, it does have a grounded plug (three prong). It's very important to have some sort of ground connection when you're dealing with liquid appliances. If your outlet does not have a (3) prong socket, you can purchase an adaptor that converts to a (2) prong (gray in color) and it comes with a wire or an eyelet that you can ground it using the screw in the power source socket. cover. I know this because I work at a hardware store also!

Mine came with a regular plug with a ground. Seems like they might have sent you the wrong one. Take the time to have them fix it...I still love mine and use it several times a week!

The Charger I received did have the grounding prong on the cord. I understand your reluctance, with four (4) strikes.

Yes. It has a 3 pronged for the ground. You would have to have a 3 pronged outlet to plug it into.

Comes with standard grounded plug (3 prong) and should be plugged into a grounded and GFI protected outlet. The GFI because this is outside and can be in/near water.

No, it's cord is fixed into the machine, but it does plug into the wall just like you'd expect. ;) Also, the AC plug's terminals do not include a ground.

No, its an electric plug in. You need an outdoor extension cord to run it and a convenient outdoor electric outlet.

Yes it has the third prong for ground. I know they make adapters for non-grounded outlets but I wouldn't recommend it since you're dealing with water.

You don't need to ground it if you are planning on using it indoors. However, it should be grounded if used outside.

I think it does not need it. But instructions say ground wire is highly recommended. My take: since there is circuitry imbedded in the unit, the ground keeps it from getting fried. I wouldn't install without ground.

Yes, but not a grounded 3-prong extension cord. It only takes the 2-prong plug.
