we use grounded electrical circuit to prevent high voltage from any type of electrical source. with the help of grounded electrical circuit we by pass the high voltage to the ground. in common language we call it earthing.

∙ 11y agoMany electrical appliances have to be grounded to work safely.
Grounding improves safety because, if the frame or case of an electrical appliance becomes "live" - from some internal fault or some external accidental damage to it - then the excess current flowing through the frame to the ground via the grounding wire will trip the fuse/circuit breaker and cut of the current instead of flowing through the operator and maybe causing serious injury or death from electric shock.

Will overcharging cellphone cause electrical short circuit?
No, overcharging cellphone will not cause an electrical short circuit.
What is closed path throuth which current can flow?
An electric circuit.
An electrical circuit with components placed one after the other?
series circuit
In electrical engineering what is a spur circuit?
spur evolves from spurious terminology.In electrical terminology it is denoted by a range of frequency through which any electrical circuit (specaially in case of RF and microwave circuits) is operated.
What is the meaning of MCCB panel Electrical Engineering?
Main circuit circuit breaker
What is the connection between any electrical circuit and the earth is called?
Electrical circuits are grounded to the earth.
What condition results anytime the human body becomes part of an electrical circuit?
The condition that will result anytime the human body becomes part of an electrical circuit will be an electrical shock. As the neutral side of a load is grounded all a person has to do to become part of the circuit is touch the "hot" feeder side of the circuit and any grounded metallic object that forms part of that circuit.
What is a grounded circuit?
When wires are not insulated,not even a single fiber of it should touch or connect to the metal base or part of the project because it will result to a grounded circuit
What does grounded mean as it relates to static electricity?
Grounded, with any electrical circuit, means there is a firm connection to earth, to prevent danger of electric shock or arc discharge.
How can you get a short circuit?
the connection is to grounded
Why can you use electrical devices without getting shocked?
To receive a shock from electrical devices you have to become part of the electrical circuit. Most electrical devices come in two categories. One, the device is grounded and the other is the device is double insulated.The grounded devices have their metallic frames grounded. On a short circuit fault this will trip the breaker and isolate the device's fault before you have a chance to ground out the device by touching it.The double insulated device has two covers that protect the user from shock. The double insulation type of protection is usually used on hand held power tools.
Why -ve terimal of the battery is grounded in vehicles?
The negative terminal is grounded to complete the electrical circuit, all other negatives in the vehicle i.e. lights, switches, etc are grounded so it really just saves a lot of wire and makes running wire easier and more convenient.
What safety features are built into a home?
Safety features built into a home include: * circuit breakers and ground fault circuit interrupters * electrical wiring installed to code * grounded water distribution piping * smoke detectors
Is a grounded circuit defined as a circuit in which some potion of the load has been increased?
No.
To prevent accidental electrical shock most electrical equipment is?
Grounded.
When you turn on a television what is the electrical circuit?
The electrical circuit when turned on it is considered closed. By the same token when an electrical circuit is turned off the electrical circuit is considered open.
What things need a electrical circuit?
Electrical devices need an electrical circuit.
