Hi,
Sorry if this is bit stupid question to ask, but i had to ask, the matter is pretty simple but i need your opinion too about this.
so here's the deal: i have oscilloscope and funktion generator, both have earthed plugs.what i ask, is it wise or completely stupid and playing with destiny if i plug them both in my 2-place earth leaded cord? my wall jack DOESN'T have earth reference pin, and yes, i know the possible risks placing earthed device to un-earthed jack. But my concern is, should i separate them both from earth, as now they share the earth-reference on my cord? see my schematic about situation.
My worries may be stupid-hearing and exaggeration, but it confuses me bit....help appreciated
oh, and sorry if this thread is already or in wrong section in forum
