Is This Answer Correct ?    66 Yes 13 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / hm

Earthing is connection to earth to provide absolute zero
potential. Earthing is given to the body of equipment so as
to divert fault current to ground through neutral
wire.operator remains safe, since current gets lower
impedance path.

Is This Answer Correct ?    37 Yes 6 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / avinash .b. koli

the term earthing means connection of neutral to the earth
(ground).when any fault is occured then the fault curent is
given to earth to expose it . it is neccesary to protection
of operater.
earthing is done by a bare simple conductor

What is Earthing?..

Answer / maharaja.a

THE FAULT CURRENT IS BYPASSED TO GROUND IS CALLED AS
EARTHING.

Is This Answer Correct ?    20 Yes 7 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / fazal ur rehman

Yes, Hm is absolutely right

Purpose of earthing is to provide a low potential path to
fault current which result in tripping the protective
device & thus cut off the supply. Once the supply is cut
off, both equipment & operator is safe. But remember
earthing witout the use of protective device in the circuit
is of no use.

Is This Answer Correct ?    15 Yes 3 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / shri

Earthing provides low resistive path for the leakege
current of a Eelectrical equipment.

Is This Answer Correct ?    14 Yes 5 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / samhitha

the process of transferring of charge from a charged object
to the earth is called earthing.

Is This Answer Correct ?    5 Yes 3 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / patel roshan

EARTHING IS A LOW RESISTANCE PATH OF LEAKAGE CURRENT.

Is This Answer Correct ?    2 Yes 0 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / anil yadav

Earthing is the part of process to transfer the charge in
the groung.and it is part of neutral.Neutral means nothing
it is just like a passing your body to charge and through
the groung.
