I can find 25 things wrong with this picture…

Based upon GE’s clear guidelines in the manual one of two things should happen:

1) GE should update their manual to say that it is OK to immerse the cable (and probe in saltwater) and that it is OK to operate the unit without a safety earth ground in place as these 2 items are mentioned 25 times in the documentation.  In my opinion the vets are one electrical ground fault, loose cable, wet cable/connector, frayed cable, cracked probe, dropped laptop in the pool, away from an electrocution hazard based upon GE’s manual and the aquarium procedures (from the photo only).

2) If GE does not do this the aquarium should change its procedures.
