  • As requested by a random redditor, a short video explaining what ground is with some very simple examples. If you're a beginner, I hope this video clears up some questions for you! Let me know what you guys think of a possible future video on outlets and home wiring.

    That was a great explanation. I thought this was going to be a boring rehash of what I knew but you gave me a new way of looking at and understanding something I took for granted.

    Holy CRAP. I've been an aspiring electrician for like 30 years (meaning I know basically nothing and have been trying to gain even a basic understanding for most of my life lol).
    This has been the single most informative piece of instructional information on electronics I've ever taken in.

      If there is a fault on an electrical circuit eg. A loose connection the current still needs to go somewhere and thats why we have a ground rather than arcing in the loose connection and causing a fire the current travels down the ground where a residual current device will detect the current going throught it (earth leakage) and will trip the circuits usually low current like 30mA

    but also a word of warning for everyone: there is more to "ground" and it can get tricky ! A complex design might have such things as separate "analogue ground" and "digital ground", etc. They show up when you hit practical limitations of the basic electronics theory. The usual electronics is about Kirchhoff laws, i.e. no noise/electromagnetic field around, no propagation delay along conductors etc. In reality, of course, the rest of nature laws do not just turn off to let your electronics simply work. So, you might need bypass capacitors and different grounds in some situations (like signals with ~GHz speeds).

      stumbled on an awesome channel on this stuff from Robert Feranec. He actually has a video "Ground in PCB layout: separate or not separate?" And more such things, like on crosstalk, etc.

    Just discovered your channel, have been learning how to build small amplifiers and guitar effect circuits - some very useful information here for a beginner Lots of effects using ICs seem to want +/- 4.5v (achieved using voltage dividers) - but I had no idea how that worked until now - thank you.
    I also saw your earlier video mentioning the beginner's kits - I would be very interested in one when they're ready, if you would be willing to ship to Australia?
    I would also like to see a video on how AC power in houses works :)

    The mechanical equivalent of voltage measurement would be pressure measurement. The pressure in a tyre is measured with reference to the atmospheric pressure at that particular altitude.

    Great video, Ahkeel! Common reference point makes perfect sense. How about a video detailing the difference between electronics ground and RF ground. I'm a ham radio operator and I had always found that concept a bit confusing. One of my ham friends has a great presentation on lightning with some ultra slow motion video that actually shows how the strike comes up from the ground. The streamers come up from the ground (hit me! hit me!) and the step leaders come down from the cloud. When they make contact the circuit is complete and what is visible is the return stroke from cloud to ground. Really cool stuff! Anyhow, that RF ground concept would be a great topic.

    @0:57,
    Voltage was the toughest Physics/Engineering concept for me to grasp because I tried to learn it from definitions in the textbooks. Big Mistake! In order to really understand it, I had to go back to Galvani and Volta's experiments and first understand "electric potential."

    Ground , for testing a circuit, ground for safety of a circuit.. Where does the Ground end up at the end?? In House or Industry or such, Ground ends up, in the Earth!!! Testing components, ??? Yea.. You get the idea..

  • @kaiserxion

    Somewhat misleading information. Most everything is correct BUT ground derives from the electrical grid where a grounding rod is driven into the ground and a grounded cable is attached then secured to the service panel. The ground is still a reference voltage closest (as long as everything is wired correct and no shorts to ground are present) to 0V but it's also a safety feature for any rogue current. The ground is literally the earthen ground. The closest thing in mobile electronics is the largest conductive object available which is most of the time the chassis.

    Hello Mohideen
    I work in HVAC industry which makes me closer to motors and the very confusing scenario named motor pulling more amps(current) due to low voltage,voltage imbalance or shorted windings.
    I kindly ask you to explain to me as to why when voltage goes down then current pulled by motor goes up as opposed by Ohm's Law which suggests Voltage across a conductor c is direct proportional to current flowing through that conductor .Showing with simple formula will be highly appreciated.Thanks in advance
