Grounding

Grounding is the process of operating an electronic system such as a power supply
system, communication system, and control system, stably without damage from
lightning, transient-current, transient-voltage, and electric noise. Grounding also
helps in preventing injury from electric shock.
Ground equipment minimizes the electrical potential of the electronic device to
that of the ground, which is zero electrical potential. This prevents electrification
of the electronic device.
Connect the ground cable first. In cabling, the connection of cables without the
connection to the ground cable may cause damage of the equipment or bodily
injury to personnel.
The purposes of the ground construction are as follows:
