Circuits are on the ground for a few reasons one is to prevent contact with dangerous voltage if the electrical insulation fails. Also been on the ground limits the build- up of electricity static.

"Grounding a connector" means you join a connector in a circuit to another point in the circuit that is definitely at ground potential. This is done mainly when testing a circuit, to be sure that a particular point in that circuit really is at ground potential if you are not certain that it is already. Alternatively, you could be doing a test to temporarily ground a connector that is not normally at ground potential, to see what effect doing the test has on the behavior of the circuit.
A GFCI can not be used on a three wire branch circuit. It has to be on a single two wire circuit.
If you are describing a circuit breaker then its electromagnetic trip component will operate in the event of a line*-to-ground (*not 'phase'!) short circuit. The thermal overload component will only operate in the event of a sustained overload.

The ground in an electric circuit is the brown copper wire.
Ground fault relays sense ground faults in the circuit and trigger a circuit breaker to trip off
Short to ground or overload in the circuit.Short to ground or overload in the circuit.
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.
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.
There is an overload or short to ground in the circuit.There is an overload or short to ground in the circuit.
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.
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.

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..
