Electrical & PPE第 70 / 100 题
Why should the grounding prong on a three-prong plug never be removed?
a.It makes the plug fit better
b.It saves electricity
c.The grounding prong provides a safe path for fault current, reducing shock risk
d.It is purely decorative
解析
The grounding prong provides a low-resistance path for fault current to flow safely to ground, reducing the risk of shock if a tool develops a fault. Removing or bending it defeats this protection. Tools with a missing ground prong should be taken out of service.
