The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician,

The green°colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover, Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place by a metal screw, Some 2-poJe receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-

trician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
