Anything that is grounded. Something like you walk outlet. There are three holes in an outlet with various shapes depending on where you live. But one of the holes is for a grounding prong. You should make sure you know which one is the ground before sticking it into the outlet though.

What electrode should the object to be plated be attached to?
Cathode, or negative terminal of power supply
How to correct floating voltages in system neutral?
Floating means there's no reference to ground, so to fix this you supply a reference to ground (be it corner grounding, solidly grounding, high resistance grounding, etc.)
How do you do earthing solution without doing grounding?
You may connect it to any water supply pipe.
How much voltage does an automobile battery usually supply?
when in good working condition an automotive battery should supply between 12.6 and 13.8 volts
What is the function of a grounding transformer in a dc electric locomotive and what would make it heat up?
A grounding transformer provides a place to connect the distribution system ground where a delta system provides the AC supply.
Where can one buy copper grounding strap of 2 or 3 x 5- - 100ft rolls?
Electrical supply store or building supply stores. Check with you local contractor and see where he gets it from.
Should you wear ESD wrist strap when working on power supply DC output?
Yes. You should wear one whenever you work inside a computer.
Classification, basic concepts and installation of grounding devices?
Grounding device is also called grounding integration device: a device that forms an electrical connection between electrical equipment or other objects and the ground. (Building Electrical Construction Technology). The grounding device consists of a grounding electrode (plate), a grounding busbar (indoor and outdoor), a grounding down-conductor (grounding jumper), and a frame grounding. It is used to realize the purpose of connecting the electrical system to the earth. The metal object that is in direct contact with the ground for electrical connection is the ground electrode. It can be an artificial ground electrode or a natural ground electrode. This grounding electrode can be assigned some electrical function, such as being used as system grounding, protective grounding or signal grounding. The grounding busbar is the reference potential point of the electrical installation of the building, through which the part that needs to be grounded in the electrical installation is connected to the grounding electrode. It also serves another function, that is, by interconnecting the equipotential bonding lines in the electrical installation, the overall equipotential bonding between the large conductive parts of a building is realized. The connection line between the grounding electrode and the grounding busbar is called the grounding electrode lead. Safety isolating transformer safety isolating transformer. Transformers that supply tools, other equipment and distribution circuits with safe extra-low voltage. Its input winding and output winding are electrically isolated by at least the equivalent of double insulation or reinforced insulation. Next, an excellent grounding device manufacturer, Sichuan Sunlight intelligent electric equipment Co., Ltd, will introduce the classification of grounding devices, basic concept of grounding device resistance and installation of grounding device. Classification of grounding devices The grounding device is composed of a grounding body (round steel, angle steel, flat steel, steel pipe, etc.) buried in the soil and a grounding wire for connection. According to the purpose of grounding, the grounding of electrical equipment can be divided into: working grounding, lightning protection grounding, protective grounding, and instrument control grounding. Working grounding: It is the grounding required to ensure the normal operation of the power system. For example, the neutral point of the transformer in the neutral point direct grounding system is grounded, and its function is to stabilize the potential of the power grid to the ground, thereby reducing the insulation to the ground. Lightning protection grounding: It is the grounding set for the needs of lightning protection. For example, the grounding of lightning rods (wires) (now called lightning rods, wires, strips) and arresters is to make the lightning current smoothly lead to the ground, so as to reduce the lightning overvoltage, so it is also called overvoltage protection grounding. Protection grounding device: also known as a safety grounding device, it is a grounding device set up for personal safety, that is, the electrical equipment shell (including the cable sheath) must be grounded to prevent the shell from being charged and endangering personal safety. Instrument control grounding device: the thermal control system, data acquisition system, computer monitoring system, transistor or microcomputer type relay protection system, and telecontrol communication system of the power plant, etc., are set up to stabilize the potential and prevent interference. Also known as an electronic system grounding device. The above is the classification of grounding devices. basic concept of grounding device resistance The resistance of the grounding device refers to the resistance encountered when the current passes through the grounding body into the earth and spreads around. The earth has a certain resistivity, and if there is current flowing through it, the earth has different potentials everywhere. After the current is injected into the ground through the grounding body, it spreads around in the form of a current field. 15~20m away), the resistance per unit diffusion distance and the current density in the ground are close to zero, and the potential here is zero. The curve U=f(r) in the figure represents the potential distribution on the ground surface (r represents the distance from the lightning current injection point). The above is the basic concept of grounding device resistance. Installation of grounding device
Is The USB port can supply power for device?
Yes, a USB port can supply a small amount of power for attached devices.
From where can the person get supply of oxygen for artificial respiration?
A person can get the supply of oxygen for artificial respiration from the cylinders attached to the machines.
What are the precautions to be observed when working on a computer with the cover removed?
Depending on what you're doing, many people will use a grounding strap to prevent static from destroying some of the cards. Personally, I just leave the computer plugged in, (turned off) which grounds the chassis. Then I always touch the chassis before I do any work. Many people ALWAYS use wrist grounding straps but I only use them if I need to unplug the computer, such as when I might need to work on it with an unplugged power supply.
What are the duties of a power supply in a working computer?
To supply power to Fans, Drives, Motherboards, processors, Ram.
