why battery dc voltage become Half when we check with
respect to ground for example 120volts + and - terminals
and when we check + terminal with Earth thats 60volts why
60volts we can not ground the battery.

Answer Posted / k.prakashchandra

The midpoint of rectifier transformer secondary is
earthed.The potential of ground is taken as +/- 0.The
voltage measured between any terminal wrt ground will be +/-
half the full voltage.This method is helpful to trace a
single polarity and for earth fault locator.
