follow the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian
Electrical Code, Part 1.
Space heater must be grounded. Use only a properly grounded
three-wire extension cord. Plug into grounded outlet only. If it should
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
The space heater is a potential source of electrical shock if not
kept dry. Keep the space heater dry and do not use in rain or wet
conditions. To protect from moisture, operate it on a dry surface
under an open, canopy-like structure. Dry your hands if wet before
touching the space heater.
Check that the entire cord is free of cuts or tears and that the plug
has all three prongs, especially a grounding pin.
