Earthing is to connect nuetral to the ground . Earthing is
done to provide conducting path to fault current to the
ground

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 |
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

Answer / harshitha
Earthing is connecting the neutral of the electrical
equipment to the ground.

Answer / maharaja.a
THE FAULT CURRENT IS BYPASSED TO GROUND IS CALLED AS
EARTHING.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 20 Yes | 7 No |
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.

Answer / shri
Earthing provides low resistive path for the leakege
current of a Eelectrical equipment.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 14 Yes | 5 No |
Answer / samhitha
the process of transferring of charge from a charged object
to the earth is called earthing.

Answer / patel roshan
EARTHING IS A LOW RESISTANCE PATH OF LEAKAGE CURRENT.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 0 No |
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.
