    Question

    In which of the following situations is earthing particularly important?

    A.

    When working with high voltage equipment

    B.

    When working with corrosive equipment

    C.

    When using equipment with grounded plugs

    D.

    When working with batteries

    Correct option is A


    Earthing (or grounding) is crucial in electrical systems for safety and proper operation. It provides a low-resistance path for fault currents, reducing the risk of electric shock, equipment damage, and fire hazards.
    · High voltage equipment operates at significantly high potential differences, increasing the risk of electric shock and insulation breakdown.
    · Proper earthing ensures that any leakage or fault current is safely discharged into the ground, protecting both humans and equipment.
