Re: Silly locations that you've seen printers or copiers sitting.
I think it was a Canon ... the enduser had yanked out the ground prong, and was using a 6A, 18 gauge lamp cord. You could cook eggs on that cord. And the frame measured 67vac frame to neutral. I got a good healthy tickle every time I removed a screw.
Recently we had OSHA show up at a customer location. The customer was horrified when an OSHA rep chopped off the power cord. When we finally got the rest of the story, it turns out that a creative customer had twisted the neutral prong to make a 20A plug fit into a 15A outlet. I don't think that OSHA considers this a best practice.
