The higher the resistance to ground, the more voltage/current has to flow to make up the difference. A good reference to ground should have a total impedance of 25 ohms or less. Improper grounding also results in excessive heat generation and may quickly become a fire hazard.

However, someone may have improperly used a black wire for grounding, rather than green wire (or green/yel wire), or forgotten to wrap it with green tape.
