What The Electrical Pin or Socket's Third Pin Accomplishes?

I'm going to talk to you today about an intriguing subject that we all see a lot but don't know much about. You may have noticed that we frequently employ two pins in addition to extras in appliances in our regularly used electrical pins/sockets (+-). A third pin is present. The earth pin, often known as the ground pin, is this connector.

Since this pin doesn't really help us in any way, we view it as worthless. You might be shocked to learn that it is a life-saving and accident-proof pin, though. The gadgets use this ground pin to assist transport the leakage current to the earth, protecting us from a variety of mishaps.

In specifics,Assume you own a rice cooker. Sometimes the cooker has a leakage current that penetrates the body of the cooker, which might lead to an accident or shock if you touch it. while this is essentially how the ground pin functions: one end of the earthing pin, or ground pin, is fastened to the rice cooker's body, while the other end is fastened to the earthing rod for the home wiring line. You are shielded from electric shock by the leakage current that builds up in the rice cooker's body and travels to ground via the ground pin.

Thanks All
