Why would an oscilloscope need more than one? In general, it is best to have a single ground in many systems. If two grounds exist, current can flow in a loop between the two grounds if there is a voltage variance between them (one is grounded better than another). In HV and EHV substations, checks are performed to insure double grounding does not occur.

Why does an oscilloscope have 2 channels?

An oscilloscope has two channels to allow for simultaneous measurement and comparison of two signals. This is useful for analyzing the relationship between two signals, such as input and output in a circuit, or for measuring phase difference and timing characteristics. Having two channels also enables the oscilloscope to display both signals on the screen for easy visualization and comparison.
