How could an improper electrical earthing connection affect an appliance?

In a properly operating appliance, there is no connection between any of its internal wiring and its chassis and/or its metal case, if there is one. As such, the earthing connection being improper will not affect the operation of the appliance.However, and this is critical, an improper earthing connection can present an electrocution hazard to the user...If the earth connection were electrically live or "hot", for instance, then the chassis of the appliance would also become live or "hot". Touching it, along with a real earth connection such as a water faucet, could cause electrocution.Additionally, if the earth connection is simply missing, then an internal malfunction within the appliance could cause the chassis and/or its metal case, if there is one, to become live or "hot", creating the same risk of electrocution.The purpose of the earthing connection is - in the event of appliance malfunction - to cause a high enough fault current that will force the protective device (fuse or circuit breaker) to trip and break the supply of current to the appliance.


What is soldering?

According to Wikipedia:"Soldering is a process in which two or more metal items are joined together by melting and flowing a filler metal (solder) into the joint, the filler metal having a lower melting point than the workpiece. Soldering differs from welding in that soldering does not involve melting the work pieces. In brazing, the filler metal melts at a higher temperature, but the workpiece metal does not melt. Formerly nearly all solders contained lead, but environmental concerns have increasingly dictated use of lead-free alloys for electronics and plumbing purposes."Soldering is a process whereby two or more metal parts (wires, component leads, pipes, etc.) are joined by the melting of a metal between them. The melting metal is known as solder. Traditionally, it was usually composed of an alloy of primarily tin and lead, but due to current environmental regulations, the use of lead in solder is becoming rare. In common useage, the phrases "solder joint" and "solder connection" mean the same thing (see below), and are used interchangeably. The word "connection" by itself can refer to either a "solder connection" or to the metal parts before they have been soldered. Confused? It's gets easier when you look at how the word or phrase is used in a sentence... as follows. The soldering process requires the heating of the parts of the connection to "wetting" temperature, the temperature at which the solder will chemicaly alloy with the metal parts being soldered. This temperature is dependant upon the alloy of solder that is being used; with " traditional" alloys, it is approximately 500 degrees F. Current no-lead solders require considerably higher wetting temperatures. In either case, if "wetting" temperature is not reached, when the solder is applied to the connection, it will melt and flow onto the metal parts, but will not alloy with them, thereby causing a "cold solder joint". By the way, cold solder joints are NOT usually dull and grainey. Dull and grainey solder joints are overheated. Cold solder joints appear uneven and lumpy, and lay on the surface of the connection like water on a waxed car hood - the solder does not flow out smoothly. Depending on the application, the heat required to make the solder connection can be provided by a soldering iron, a solder gun, a torch, or a hot-air gun. Other methods exist, but are usually used only in automated processes. When a solder connection has been made properly, the connection is solid metal; there is no barrier or space between the parts of the connection. Essentially, the solder has blended with the parts of the connection, forming what is called an "interrmetallic alloy". The intermetallic alloy forms where the space between the parts was before the soldering was perforrmed. Without the formation of the intermetalic alloy, a true solder connection has not been created; what would exist would be "encapsulation" or simple "adhesion", but not a solder connection. This type of metal-to-metal connection is mechanically weak when comaperd to a solder joint, and will not provide the long term reliability and low electrical resistance that a true solder joint will provide.Soldering is a process whereby two or more metal parts (wires, component leads, pipes, etc.) are joined by the melting of a metal between them.
