You should have a separate ground for that outlet. Since it's a dedicated
line, I'm presuming the ground also goes all the way back the the box and
doesn't connect to any other grounds. That's what it should do. Connecting
to any other ground is opening the door for problems.

I think you want to make sure that the wiring feeding this receptacle
isn't two circuits with a shared ground, which I think is pretty
common and the wiring is something like Romex 14/3. I know
you are covering that Ty, but it might not be obvious.
