ground wires

Posted by BS64 on May 22, 2011 at 07:03:44:

"All the noise from electrical appliances and shielding (even from neighbors) are dumped into the thin high resistance ground wires of the house. The noise will build up like a traffic jam so that the grounding speed will slow down."

If homes in Sweden are wired with "thin, high resistance ground wires", you are as good as dead should an electrical accident occur. Highly resistive ground paths are used to prevent breaker trips in hospitals and other critical applications where you want to be alerted to a ground fault, but not have the equipment power down as a result.

If the ground path is highly resistive, the path through your body would be the least resistent. Touch anything with a grounded chassis and kiss your keester goodbye...
