Answer for USA, Canada and other countries using similar 60Hz household electricity supplies "Ground or "earth" wire has green insulation or is just bare uninsulated copper wire.

Why is copper wiring coated with insulation?
Because if the wire is "hot", that is, has electricity flowing through it, and you touch a bare wire, then YOU become the "ground" and complete the circuit. This will cause at the least a bad shock, and at the worst it will cause death. The "ground" wires are bare, but that is because they do not have electricity flowing through them unless something shorts out (ie a "hot" wire which is normally black or red in color touches a ground or neutral wire which is normally white. The "ground" wires are either bare or have a green coating.
