You do need an earth in your garage you will need to hammer an earth rod in the ground and connect it to and RCD type consumer unit this will then trip at 30mA and give you protection. An electrician would do this for you. The spindle will run from a 13A plug and the drivers from say 10A.
All the shields and earths in the control box should be connected to one point called a star point and then that point should be connected to the earth. The shields are generally connected at one end only, at the control box. Hope this helps ..Clive
