Answer:
Technician B
Step-by-step explanation:
In simplistic terms, the "hot wire" connects the load device to the source of electrical energy. The ground wire provides the return path for current from the load device to the energy source. In many circuits, the "ground wire" is at, near, or defined as "ground" potential (the actual potential of the Earth).
Technician A seems to be confused. Technician B is more correct.
