Free QuoteThere will in turn be no current flow through the ground detection circuit. It may be easier to picture the output as a battery and the connection to ground being a full short. When completely shorted to ground the positive side of the battery becomes zero volts. The negative side of the battery would then effectively become -120 volts.
The battery current will flow from positive to ground. With the negative of the battery at a lower voltage than ground, current will flow towards the negative of the battery. The current flows through the positive ground indicator (D1) and R2, and the circuit is completed to the negative of the battery.
In many markets the battery and loads are set up as floating with respect to earth ground, this means that neither the negative nor the positive of the system is grounded. Certain contaminants in the air are conductive and can create a small current path to ground.
With no resistance between the battery positive and ground, R1 will effectively appear open. The battery current will flow from positive to ground. With the negative of the battery at a lower voltage than ground, current will flow towards the negative of the battery.
A battery short circuit occurs when the positive and negative terminals of a battery come into direct contact, bypassing the resistance of the load. This can cause a rapid discharge of electrical energy, potentially leading to overheating, explosion, or fire. What are the causes of a battery short circuit?
The current flows through the positive ground indicator (D1) and R2, and the circuit is completed to the negative of the battery. As stated in the introduction “certain contaminants in the air are conductive and can create a small current path to ground.” Instead of a full short this will appear as a resistance.
