What is the primary purpose of grounding electronic equipment?
To serve as a backup power source for devices
To increase the signal strength of electronic components
To provide a safe path for electrical charges to dissipate
To prevent physical damage to equipment during transport
Grounding provides a safe path for excess electrical charge or current to disperse into the earth, which helps to prevent electrical shock, equipment damage, and fire hazards. It ensures that any stray current is directed away from sensitive components, protecting both the device and the user.
The other options suggest functions that grounding does not perform, such as serving as a power source or increasing signal strength, which are incorrect.
