The grounding pin helps prevent electrical faults by directing excess current safely to the ground. Additionally, 3-pin plugs are often designed to handle higher power loads, making them more suitable for appliances with higher energy demands. Ultimately, the choice depends on the specific application and the safety standards in your region.

If a spark goes from the electrical wires to the body of the motor, it will go harmlessly to the ground and not hurt anyone. On a two pin plug, usually one pin is larger than the other. The larger pin goes to the neutral or white wire. It is also grounded. That way if there is an electrical short in the device, it should not electrocute the person using it.
