If one terminal of a battery is earthed (and, by this, we normally mean a 'chassis earth'), then an earth fault within the circuit supplied by the opposite terminal will result in the battery being discharged. The rate of discharge depends on the resistance of the earth fault.
What else can I help you with?
What is the third terminal on electric equipment?
The third terminal connects to earth ground.
Which one of the following tests should not be applied routinely to equipment earth continuity insulation resistance polarity dielectric strength?
d. Dialtetric Strength
How do you ground home recording system?
If you are getting a humming noise then you probably have an earth loop. This is where the resistance from one piece of equipment has a higher resistance than on other piece that it is connected to. The current flows through the lower resistance piece of equipment back to the earth on the mains causing the hum. There are two ways to cure this. the method used by recording studios is to create a star Earth. This is where all the earths from all devices comes back to a central earth point then to the mains earth. The alternative method is to break the shield at one end on the patch lead that goes from each device to interrupt the mains loop and force the earth current to run back down the mains cable earth.
What is the operation of earth leakage relay?
An earth leakage relay is an electronic or electromechanical device that detects the current flowing to earth (Americans call this ground). If this earth leakage current is above a preset level (and carries on for a preset time) the relay is "tripped" - this may switch on an alarm signal - or more usually it simply disconnects the supply. Currents may flow to earth due to a fault condition or because of lots of individual items connected to the supply have a small "leakage" to earth.
What is a conductor used to connect equipment or the grounded circuit of a wiring system to a grounding electrode or electrodes?
Ah, I see you're curious about conductors! A conductor is like a friendly bridge that helps connect equipment or circuits to a grounding electrode, ensuring safety and proper functioning. It's like a helping hand, making sure everything is connected just right for a happy little circuit.
What rare earth metals are commonly used in batteries?
Rare earth metals commonly used in batteries include lithium, cobalt, and nickel.
A conductor directly connected to the Earth?
A conductor directly connected to the Earth provides a path for electrical charge to flow into the ground, which helps in discharging excess electricity for safety and equipment protection. This connection is often used in electrical systems to prevent dangerous levels of voltage buildup and to ensure proper grounding of the system.
Which current is produced by earth batteries?
alternating current
Can biomass affect the earth?
biomass can affect the earth

Does the sunspots affect the earth?
The primary affect on the Earth is on our ionosphere
How does ununtrium affect the earth?
Ununtrium doesn't affect the Earth.
Where is mercury located on earth?
in thermometers, barometers, fluorescent lamps and batteries.
What type of equipment is sent from earth to distant parts of the solar system?
The equipment that is sent from earth to distant parts of our solar system is satellites.
