help!! grounding problem in the philippines

[markezekiel]

mga bro tulong naman, kc db ung electric circuits d2 sa philippines eh walang ground.

2 prongs lang ang available and as a result, ung mga unwanted noise ay walang pinupuntahan.

even noisegates and regulated power supplies cant comprehend with this problem effectively.

anu kaya pwede natin gawin? i hope  this post would benifit all our brother musicians.. thanks!!!

you mean the 60hz hum? pwede naman ang "earth grounding" bro. i might be wrong but the alternative of most techs is just to string a ground wire from the chassis of the equipment to a ground rod (or a metal driven to earth), pwede rin ang water supply pipeline (not the pvc of course).

True.. parang yung sa PLDT.. diba meron silang mga steel rods na nakatusok sa lupa?.. pwede ka makijump dun.. or as what Super Bisdak said, pwede rin sa water pipelines.. 

yan din mismo ang sinabi sakin nung kaibigan ko na nagtatrabaho sa meralco..

then the best thing to do is to play on barefoot!  hehe

i think would be a good option to bring with you a (handy) groundwire, a stranded #18 copper wire with an alligator clip on both ends will do the job. just tap your equipment to the nearest staked metal on stage and that's it.
