Answer 1

Grounding is the smart way to protect humans and other resources at home, office or any place. Grounding will protect against heavy loads. There may be situation where suddenly the load of electricity is high, the earth accepts the unwanted high voltage and protect the place and lives.

Grounding helps to “direct” the electricity throughout the electrical system. It defines the clear path.

It also stabilizes levels of voltage. It transfers equal amount of electricity to each and every portion of the electrical system.

Answer 2

It is important to ground both computers and network devices because the most important reasons for grounding is that it protects your appliances.

Step-by-step explanation:

• If you are using any electronic device without proper grounded electrical system, the electronic devices which we are using are going to damage.
• So if we are using the appliances without grounding means there is problem to both the appliances and the person who is handling that electronic device.
• So it is important to ground the computers which we are using to reduce the hazards.
