I have a power unit that came with a 3 wire pig tail colors of white, green and black ...a plug like a dryers... only no plug and no ground

The unit is 240 volts.... rated at 30 amps....we bought a 30 amp 2 pole breaker . http://www.powerboxinc.com/

I was told by the manufacturer that white was to the common bar ....the other 2 were power from each side of the pole

We hooked it up that way.... the timer worked.... as soon as we touched the box.... my bro got shocked to shit...


My question is what did we do wrong?? Isnt there a ground?
