In Japan, they have ground. Most sockets do not have ground, but those who are made for specific equipment has a ground below the socket. For example, a microwave has two cables that you plug in; 1 for the ac power line, 1 for the ground. They usually split towards the end of the cable, with only a few cm max distance between the two. @ElectroBOOM

We have ground in Japan. Just not in every outlet. It's typically below the outlets where you can screw any ground wjres onto.

"Just not in every outlet." Exactly why it's terrible.

[@kira7741]

[@arjxsid]

I am confusion!!

[@はる-h9h9o]

In Japan, only appliances such as washing machines need to be grounded, and it is not a three wire plug, but a two-wire plug plus a separate ground wire, which is exposed outside the plug and connected independently to a hole under the socket.

[@snaaail]

In a physics class, I got to measure the speed of light and our oscilloscope was very important and useful, good stuff

[@zesli2384]

100v outlets in Japan have a separate ground connector which is secured using a screw. 200v outlets (used by high power appliances like aircon,oven)have a fixed 3rd ground pin just like these you have in north America. The outlet in video is a specific outlet made by Panasonic which is used for connecting chargers in public utilities, so this make sense why there's no ground.

[@DasAntiNaziBroetchen]

"100v outlets in Japan have a separate ground connector which is secured using a screw" Correction: SOME outlets (and in fact most don't) "used by high power appliances like aircon" My AC is plugged into an un-grounded 100v outlet.
