Topic: Is adi-2 pro a double insulation device?

If so,

https://www.sbooster.com/botw-pp-eco-12 … co-12-132v

This adaptor is connected to earth ground.

Does this have a bad effect?

Re: Is adi-2 pro a double insulation device?

Apart from different power supplies being just wasted money when used with the ADI-2 Pro (I clearly mentioned the reasons in the manual), the RME power supply is floating. So if the SBooster makes ground contact to Schuko or similar it might indeed cause a ground loop with other conections present (analog or USB).

Thank you for answer.
All devices have no ground.
So I tried to buy it for safety.

Devices that have no 'ground' are not unsafe, they are built to be safe without 'ground'. But if none of yours have a 'ground' connection, then adding at least one can sometimes remove noise problems.
