AN EMPLOYEE WAS INSTALLING A COVER AT THE BOTTOM DRAIN OF AN EMPTY SWIMMING POOL. HE WAS USING AN ELECTRIC DRILL WITH A THREE-CONDUCTOR CORD SET PLUGGED INTO A GROUNDING-TYPE RECEPTACLE OUTLET. BETWEEN THE THREE-PRONGED PLUG ON THE DRILL'S PENDANT CORD AND THE CORD CONNECTOR (RECEPTACLE) ON THE CORD SET WAS AN ADAPTER DESIGNED TO PROVIDE A GROUNDING MEANS FOR UNGROUNDED RECEPTACLES.
