How does ground work in electronics

1.02K views

Hello,

most non low-power electric devices have a ground pin to protect if a shortcut or something happens (Correct me if I got that wrong, already)

But how does it work? As far as I know you always need a completed circuit for electricity to flow. So how is an electric circuit closed if electricity flows to the ground?

there is a ground connection at the device but there is also a ground connection at the source of your power circuit. The second, pre-existing connection is the part you are missing that completes the circuit.
