The chassis of electrical equipment is typically connected to the Earth through the Ground (Earth) terminal of the electrical outlet. This is why building wiring should (or must, in many areas) include an on-site Earth ground connection. Earthing of equipment chassis is a safety measure taken to help prevent electrical shock in the event of an insulation failure or a short circuit. If there were no chassis-ground connection, a hot wire which accidentally comes in contact with the chassis could cause the user to get a serious shock. If there's no Earth connection available, use a GFCI outlet to help prevent electrocution.
