 Adding a ground wire to a 2 wire AC Circuit Greetings: I have an old jukebox that works but the AC cord needs replacing. The existing wiring is for a 2 wire cord but I want to add a ground wire. I am interested in anyone who has information that would help me accomplish this. Thanks in advance for any assistance, KWayne | |

| Why do you need to add a ground? Is the jukebox not double insulated? If it required a ground, surely it would have been fitted as original equipment. | |

| Any part of the metal housing of the Box that can be touched by the user is sufficient for grounding.

| Hi kwayne, I would also connect the ground wire to the metal frame of the jukebox. That's pretty much standard practice.
