maadoitettua

Maadoitettua is a Finnish linguistic form that functions as the partitive singular of the past participle maadoitettu, meaning that something has been grounded or earthing has taken place. The verb maadoittaa means to ground or earth, especially in electrical contexts, where a connection to the earth helps stabilize potential and improve safety. Thus maadoitettua describes objects or systems that have undergone grounding.

In practical terms, maadoitettua is most commonly used in technical language related to electrical engineering and safety. It refers to devices, conductors, or installations that have been connected to the earth or to a defined reference potential. For example, grounded conductors or grounded equipment can be described as maadoitettua johtoa or maadoitettu laite in context, with the partitive form maadoitettua appearing when the phrase is part of a larger clause or indefinite object.

Morphology and grammar: maadoitettua is the partitive form of the adjective maadoitettu, which itself comes from the verb maadoittaa. The form is used to describe a non-specified quantity or extent of grounding within a sentence, or when the object of the sentence is not bounded. The related forms maadoitettu (nominative) and maadoitus (noun) are used in other syntactic contexts.
