Grounded power tools are designed with an extra safety feature to prevent electrical shocks. They usually have a three-pronged plug or a separate grounding wire that directs any stray electrical current away from the user. This is especially important for tools used in damp or high-risk environments, where faulty wiring could lead to serious injuries. Using grounded tools with properly wired outlets and ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) further enhances safety, making them essential for professional and home use.
The better quality tools all have 3 wires. You are looking at cheaper tools.
Transformers are used with tools that operate on less than 'mains' voltage.
First off you should not be touching any high voltage source whether you are grounded or not. A pole isn't typically dangerous, it is the wires on the pole. A path to ground is required for a current to flow. Technicians working on high voltage power line often touch the lines and ensure they are not grounded when doing so, by using special procedures. That is why birds can sit on bare power lines without getting shocked.
Most electric power tools as we know them were developed in WW2. They started becoming available for home use in the late 1940's.
If you are working from a generator and many tools are used at the same time, voltage will drop.

a grounded power source
Please. If you need this answer you are not qualified to do the job. It is a basic simple mechanical task with rules and laws that are meant to protect life and property. If you insist please disconnect the outside meter first so you will not be shocked. It is directly connected to your fuse box. Now tools "grounded" or "ungrounded" will be of no concern. Insulated is the term used for safe electrical tools. When working on high tension power the disconnect is turned off, locked out and the wires are grounded.
Both, it must be grounded and must have power.
Yes, electric tools are power tools.
The answer is tools!
Hand tools are "handheld" tools (wrenchs, screwdrivers, pliers, ect.). Power Tools are tools that use electricity to power them(cordless tools). If you visit www.discounttoolmart.com you can see some examples.
power tools
There are literally hundreds of power tools.
Strategy manufactures Strategy power tools. Strategy power tools were sold by QVC.
Some tools can be both power and automotive tools. But generally automotive tools are wrenches, sockets, drivers etc whereas power tools are electric saws, drills,etc.
There is no power to it. The 'protected' light indicates that the filter circuit is operational and has power to it. The 'grounded' light indicates whether a device is properly grounded. But it still needs power to the surge protector to light it.
