The part of the circuit that is tied to a ground rod that is usually 6-8 ft long and is driven in the actual ground outside a building. Most local electrical codes require the ground circuit also be tied to the neutral bar in the electrical service panel. Effectively, you are causing the neutral bar to be grounded electrically to physical earth ground.
A ground circuit can also be on a vehicle. It usually is the car body and chassis used as a return path for electrical currents back to the battery negative post. Some vehicles use a positive ground instead of a negative ground (European vehicles usually).
What else can I help you with?
What is the two types of ground circuit?
1. direct ground circuit 2. virtually ground circuit
What is meant by the ground in an electric circuit?
The ground in an electric circuit is the brown copper wire.
What do ground fault relays do?
Ground fault relays sense ground faults in the circuit and trigger a circuit breaker to trip off
Reverse light fuse keeps blowing out?
Short to ground or overload in the circuit.Short to ground or overload in the circuit.
Where is the ground circuit for brake lights on a Honda civic?
The ground circuit for your Honda Civic brake lights can be found on the rear frame rail. The ground circuit will be on the drivers side frame rail.
The difference between short to a voltage circuit and short to a ground circuit?
A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes intended to be at different voltages. A voltage circuit is caused intentionally for the purpose of voltage sensing. A ground circuit occurs between a phase and the ground.
Why is your engine control fuse keep blowing?
There is an overload or short to ground in the circuit.There is an overload or short to ground in the circuit.
What is a ground loop isolator?
Ground loop isolators are used to break the DC circuit path for the audio shield ground circuit. It removes ground loops from the system, which are unwanted.
Which wire is the ground wire in a circuit?
The ground wire in a circuit is typically colored green or bare copper. It is used to safely direct excess electrical current to the ground to prevent electrical shock or damage to the circuit.

What is a bad ground cable?
In an electrical circuit, you'll have a charged circuit (the positive), and a ground circuit... a bad ground cable is a cable which is somehow not effectively completing the ground.. could be poor conductive material, a break or fray in the cable, an improper grounding point..
