Electrical Cord Having Fixed Ground Pin

An electrical cord having improved safety features, the electrical cord comprising:

• a cable having a first electrical wire configured to carry current to a load device, a second electrical wire configured to return current from the load device, and a third electrical wire configured to carry current to a ground connection;
• and
• a first plug comprising:
• a first body portion surrounding respective first ends of the first, second, and third electrical wires;
• a live blade in electrical communication with the first end of the first electrical wire;
• a neutral blade in electrical communication with the first end of the second electrical wire;
• and
• a ground pin fixed in relation to, and in electrical communication with, the first end of the third electrical wire;
• wherein the first body portion surrounds and maintains the live blade, neutral blade, and ground pin in spaced apart orientation corresponding to sockets on an electrical outlet;
• and
• a second plug comprising:
• a second body portion fabricated of an at-least translucent material and surrounding respective second ends of the first, second, and third electrical wires;
• a live receptacle in electrical communication with the second end of the first electrical wire;
• a neutral receptacle in electrical communication with the second end of the second electrical wire;
• and
• a ground receptacle in electrical communication with the second end of the third electrical wire;
• an indicator configured to provide a first signal to indicate a first state of the electrical cord in which electricity is supplied to the electrical cord in a normal polarity from the first electrical wire to the second electrical wire and a second signal to indicate either of a second state of the electrical cord, in which electricity is supplied to the electrical cord in a reversed polarity from the second electrical wire to the first electrical wire, and a third state of the electrical cord, in which electricity is not supplied to the electrical cord;
• wherein the second body portion surrounds and maintains the live receptacle, neutral receptacle, and ground receptacle in spaced apart orientation corresponding to pins on an electrical plug.
