[QUOTE="archive10, post: 1022861"] No, this goes for single dwelling installations too. You should always make sure the signal-carrying equipment is earthed/grounded. This not only alleviates ground hum, but also removes any DC offsets induced by different power phases/circuits at different points in the chain. But it's not imperative. It will work without, and probably very wlll. But if you can connect the ground terminal to a *real* ground (not one in an electrical socket), you should do so. [/QUOTE]
