I recently bought a Lincoln Pro-Cut 55 plasma cutter. While reading through the manual, I noticed that it said you have to ground the chassis of the unit to earth. Here is the exact wording...

FRAME GROUNDING

The frame of the Pro-cut 55 must be properly grounded. A ground terminal marked () is mounted on the case bottom directly behind the input power switch for this purpose. The cable that is sent attached to the machine is connected to this ground terminal. See the National Electric Code for details on proper grounding methods. Install in accordance with all local and national electrical codes.

Is this normal procedure with this unit? Any recommendations on setting up a good earth ground?
