In power point wiring,often,we use less size of earth wire
compared to phase & neutral wire and we use big size pin in
pug top. how is it justified? can we use small size cable
for earthing?
Answer Posted / shanmugam annamalai
The reason of earth point in bigger than that others to
save the equipments from leakage current. It means, the
system will be earthed before connecting to the power
supply. Ultimately, if there is any leakage current, it
would bypassed through earth so equipment will be safe.
Please reply, It you need more clarifications

In our factory so many iron pillors are exists for supporting the shed/Hangar. If do more no of earthings at one piller instead of doing more earth pits in many locations and running earth strip around the hanger, I can save the money. Please suggest this method is acceptable as per Is specifications though the Earth resitance of the farthest piller is with in the limits as per IS specifications.
