Answer 2

Answer:

The earth wire saves appliances from damage.

Explanation:

• The earth wire constituted by metallic wire protects the devices by diverting any leakage of current and preventing from electric shocks.
• The earth or the ground wire deflects the faulty current to the earth through the protective conductor.
• The earth wire protects the device by switching off the flow of electric current to the faulty circuit.
• This earth wire is a reservoir of electric charges.
• The path of the earth wire is independent of that of the current-carrying path in a device.
