why battery dc voltage become Half when we check with
respect to ground for example 120volts + and - terminals
and when we check + terminal with Earth thats 60volts why
60volts we can not ground the battery.

The midpoint of rectifier transformer secondary is
earthed.The potential of ground is taken as +/- 0.The
voltage measured between any terminal wrt ground will be +/-
half the full voltage.This method is helpful to trace a
single polarity and for earth fault locator.

Because your Ground is not connected with V-(V- which is taken as reference point). when you check Voltage respect to ground that time you should also check the resistance between V+ to E & V -E which is equal(the Value which is higher than 10 mega ohm ).
Simple apply voltage Divider & you will get half Voltage

The value shown is a capacitive value i.e it is due to capcitance effect wyou are getting some value. If you put a lamp it will not glow.

The above answer is correct.If you use an earth fault
indicator ,you are able to measure voltages. And if you run
both leads along the ground or a metal surface ,you can
measure voltages with a digital voltmeter ,as the
capacitances between the leads and the surface/ground, bring
the surface/ground to +or- zero potential.

Answer / sarvesh kotiyal
the resistance between the supply and ground is very high(1-5gohm). so Ideally it should not show any voltage but Internal Input resistance of multimeter approx 10 Mohm for Voltage measurement which is almost a short circuit in comparison to earth .so when you check voltage with respect to earth
V + to E = 24 * 10/10+10 = 12 V.
