maadoitusjohtimessa
Maadoitusjohtimessa, often translated as "grounding conductor" or "earth conductor," refers to a specific type of electrical conductor in a wiring system. Its primary function is to connect the electrical equipment's exposed conductive parts to the earth or a common grounding point. This connection is crucial for electrical safety. In the event of a fault, such as a live wire touching the metal casing of an appliance, the maadoitusjohtimessa provides a low-resistance path for the fault current to flow to the ground. This prevents the metal casing from becoming energized at a dangerous voltage, thereby protecting users from electric shock.
The maadoitusjohtimessa is typically green or green and yellow striped, a standardized color code that helps
