What is the resistance of the earth?
Does this resistance have any impact on electrical systems in our homes?
Yes, the resistance of the earth can have an impact on electrical systems in homes, particularly in terms of grounding. Proper grounding is essential for safety and proper functioning of electrical systems, and this typically involves connecting certain components to the earth or a grounding electrode to ensure that any electrical current that is discharged is safely dissipated into the ground rather than being discharged elsewhere.
