Forty years ago I bought a JC Penney 3/8" drill with only two plug legs. They called it "double insulated". It isolated the electronics from earth ground by using nonconductive materials. Many of my "consumer" tools, including a random polisher and a weed wacker use this UL approved configuration which isn't shocking at all except to the circuit breaker.
