Earthing is necessary to give protection against

Question 1

Earthing is necessary to give protection against
1. Voltage fluctuation
2. Overloading
3. Danger of electric shock
4. High temperature of the conductors

Question 2

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Danger of electric shock

Purpose of Earthing:

To save human life from the danger of electrical shock or death by blowing a fuse. It provides an alternative path for the fault current to flow so that it will not endanger the user.
To protect buildings, machinery & appliances under fault conditions i.e. to ensure that all exposed conductive parts do not reach a dangerous potential.
To provide a safe path to dissipate lightning and short circuit currents.
To provide protection against static electricity from friction.
