SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES
In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should
a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appli-
ance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be
identical to the parts they replace. A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words
"DOUBLE INSULATION" or "DOUBLE INSULATED". The symbol ( square within a
square) may also be marked on the appliance.
