Lots of static electricity is created when drying your clothes. Why can’t the dryer send the static to ground?
In: Engineering
Because static electricity is a connection from some charges to other charges. If one ‘charges’ are in ground, then a static electric discharge still exists from charges in clothes to charges now in ground.
Static is eliminated when both charges are somehow connected. One of many techniques is an ion generator. Then no current (a static discharge) happens because those charges are already discharged.
