In three pin socket normally three pin in between three
pins earthing point is more thickness why?
Answer Posted / a.rafeeq raja
As Leakage current need to flow through the Earth Wire
the resisitance should be as low compared to that of the
phase and neutral wires.Besides,The resistance of the
conductor is inversely proportional to the cross sectional
area of the conductor .Hence bigger cross sectonal area
reduces the resistance and provides a easy path for the
current flow.So the Earth Pin is always bigger than the
other two pins in a 3pin plug.
