What is a ground connection in electronic circuits?


Answers: Ground connecion exists in DC circuits and its purpose is as a refrence.For example water always flows from a higher place to a lower place. Similarly current flow from higher voltage to lower voltage.
All electric circuits are designed to operate on a specific voltage this voltage is measured with refence to the ground of the circuit which is taken as the negative terminal of the power source
In an electrical circuit operating at signal voltages (usually less than 50 V or so), a common return path that is the zero voltage reference level for the equipment or system. This signal ground may or may not actually be connected to a power ground. A system where the system ground is not actually connected to earth is often referred to as a floating ground.
In an electrical circuit, a common return path that usually (a) is connected to an earth-electrode subsystem and (b) is extended throughout a facility via a facility ground system consisting of the signal reference subsystem, the fault protection subsystem, and the lightning protection subsystem. In an electrical circuit, a common return path that (a) may not necessarily be connected to earth and (b) is the zero voltage reference level for the equipment or system.
