A ground/earth fault is a fault where part of the current returns back through a path other than the opposing hot or, more critically, neutral. A neutral/earth fault is dangerous because the circuit will continue to function normally, but the hot and neutral leg currents are imbalanced, and the chassis can become energized.
The San Andreas is a strike-slip fault, meaning that the edges of two tectonic plates are rubbing against each other. There are trying to slide against each other, but friction keeps them in place. When pressure builds to a point it overcomes friction, you have a 'slip', an earthquake.
