What is Earthing?..

Answer / abdul wajid

Earthing is to connect nuetral to the ground . Earthing is
done to provide conducting path to fault current to the
ground

Is This Answer Correct ?    66 Yes 13 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / hm

Earthing is connection to earth to provide absolute zero
potential. Earthing is given to the body of equipment so as
to divert fault current to ground through neutral
wire.operator remains safe, since current gets lower
impedance path.

Is This Answer Correct ?    37 Yes 6 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / avinash .b. koli

the term earthing means connection of neutral to the earth
(ground).when any fault is occured then the fault curent is
given to earth to expose it . it is neccesary to protection
of operater.
earthing is done by a bare simple conductor

Is This Answer Correct ?    34 Yes 12 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / harshitha

Earthing is connecting the neutral of the electrical
equipment to the ground.

Is This Answer Correct ?    22 Yes 9 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / maharaja.a

THE FAULT CURRENT IS BYPASSED TO GROUND IS CALLED AS
EARTHING.

Is This Answer Correct ?    20 Yes 7 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / fazal ur rehman

Yes, Hm is absolutely right

Purpose of earthing is to provide a low potential path to
fault current which result in tripping the protective
device & thus cut off the supply. Once the supply is cut
off, both equipment & operator is safe. But remember
earthing witout the use of protective device in the circuit
is of no use.

Is This Answer Correct ?    15 Yes 3 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / shri

Earthing provides low resistive path for the leakege
current of a Eelectrical equipment.

Is This Answer Correct ?    14 Yes 5 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / samhitha

the process of transferring of charge from a charged object
to the earth is called earthing.

Is This Answer Correct ?    5 Yes 3 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / patel roshan

EARTHING IS A LOW RESISTANCE PATH OF LEAKAGE CURRENT.

Is This Answer Correct ?    2 Yes 0 No

What is Earthing?..

Answer / anil yadav

Earthing is the part of process to transfer the charge in
the groung.and it is part of neutral.Neutral means nothing
it is just like a passing your body to charge and through
the groung.

We have a 12MW power plant & we inject 5-6MW power to Orissa GRID. For this we have a 33KV/11KV switch yard having 12.5MVA power transformer. Some times we draw power during emergency. It is observed that during Export or Import for load less than 500Kw the power factor is decreasing to 0.3 . This is happening only during export or import. During island condition TG power factor OK.Our capacitor bank is provided with our Power plant auxilliary load. Please suggest how I can we improve our power factor during low load (GRID).
