Ground can be a confusing term, as it can have two separate meanings.
Here's one way: Conventionally, the ground of a circuit is the return line for the current. If you have a battery hooked up to a resistor, then the "positive" side of the battery terminal, the side that carries positive voltage, is the "hot" side, and the other side that completes the circuit back to the negative terminal of the batter is "ground." That said, ground is technically anywhere in the circuit you want it to be. Ground is what the designer of the circuit decides is 0 volts, and every other voltage is relative to ground.
Another use for the term "ground" is the safety measure built into our electrical system, now. It's a short circuit to the Earth so that if something in your circuit breaks down, the extra, potentially dangerous current, can flow directly to the Earth, and not build up dangerous charges in the machine, etc. The bottom hole of your wall outlets is this safety ground.
But, to restate what I said above: In terms of the circuit, ground is technically what you define to be 0 volts.
If the circuit is not grounded, you could become the ground if there is a failure that results in the hot side of the system coming in contact with a metal case of an appliance, for example. When the appliance is grounded properly then if the hot wire came into contact with a metal case that was grounded, the breaker would trip.
If you are talking about earthing, then ive got an answer for u.
The earth is at zero potential so when we connect a plate to the earth, it gets transferred and becomes neutral, thats why it is required.
A "GFCI" is a ground fault circuit interrupter. For more information see the link below.
the function of the control device is that you can know if the circuit is on or off
Electric circuit need a main circuit breaker that can protect the whole circuit from short circuit even in ground fault. It's safer if you use breaker with built in ground protection.
A short circuit is the term for hot touching ground. This can cause a breaker to trip which will then open the circuit.
No
1. direct ground circuit 2. virtually ground circuit
it's function is to supply energy(electric)
The ground in an electric circuit is the brown copper wire.

A relay will have a control circuit and a function circuitcould be the same feed line. One set of terminals (Hot and Load) can be activated at all times, but will not function until the control circuit is closed. The control circuit has a Hot and a Ground--when activated either by supply hot or ground by switch. The internal coil closes allowing the function circuit to operate. The purpose of this relay is to reduce the spike to the alternator. It takes less current (voltage) to close the coil on the relay than it would to operate the accessory that it controls
the function of the control device is that you can know if the circuit is on or off
Ground fault relays sense ground faults in the circuit and trigger a circuit breaker to trip off
Short to ground or overload in the circuit.Short to ground or overload in the circuit.
The ground circuit for your Honda Civic brake lights can be found on the rear frame rail. The ground circuit will be on the drivers side frame rail.
A short circuit is an abnormal connection between two nodes intended to be at different voltages. A voltage circuit is caused intentionally for the purpose of voltage sensing. A ground circuit occurs between a phase and the ground.
Electric circuit need a main circuit breaker that can protect the whole circuit from short circuit even in ground fault. It's safer if you use breaker with built in ground protection.
the function of a power source in a circuit is that it provides a steady source of static electricity
