Long story short:
Transformer in a PAR36 lamp fixture died. The lamp fixture had a 3-wire (grounded) power cord.
I scav'd a replacement transformer from some other equipment; it had a 2-wire (non-grounded) but polarized power cord.
The light fixture was approved by Ontario Hydro.
The appliance from which I got the replacement transformer was approved by CSA as "Audio Video Equipment".
The power supply module from which I yanked the transformer was approved by Underwriter's Laboratories as "Recognized Component".
Do I still need the 3-wire grounded power cord? Or can I get away with an ungrounded 2-wire?
