2-pole, 3-wire, grounding type receptacle?

[rrc14]

What is the difference between a 2-pole, 3-wire, grounding type receptacle and a regular 2-pole, 3-wire receptacle? Does the regular 2-pole, 3-wire receptacle not have ground?

Thanks for any information.

I wonder if they are not the same. Where do you see this wording of the devices.

I'm with Dennis on this one. What do you mean by this (my emphasis on one word),

. . . a regular 2-pole, 3-wire receptacle?

Okay, I was just thrown off by the phrase "grounding type", I see know all that means is a receptacle with a ground. The "regular" receptacle I was alluding to was a "grounding type" all along. thanks guys for the clarification.
