What is Earthing?
Introduction
Earthing, also known as grounding, is the process of transferring the immediate discharge of electrical energy directly to the earth using low-resistance wires or electrical cables. This is a critical safety feature in electrical systems, ensuring that in the case of a fault, the excess current is safely dissipated into the ground.

Function of Earthing
- Safety: Prevents electric shocks by providing a path for fault current to flow to the ground.
- Protection: Protects electrical appliances and installations from damage by dissipating excess current.
- Stability: Stabilizes voltage levels by providing a common reference point for the electrical system.
