In many wye electrical systems, the function of the ground and neutral conductor is not differentiated because they are incorrectly joined. From a technical point of view, a connection between ground and neutral shall only be made once, at the main electrical panel; otherwise, those conductors should form two different paths. Although the implications of this connection are often seen as shallow and a misinterpretation of the National Electrical Code (NEC) makes it acceptable, this matter is actually very significant when it comes to protecting humans. Thus, it is important to take a deeper look into how to make a suitable ground path, which is the scope of this article.

主连接跳线和设备接地导体的适当实施：深入了解合适的接地路径

在许多星形电气系统中，接地导体和中性导体的功能没有区别，因为它们连接不正确。从技术角度来看，接地和中性线之间的连接只能在主配电板上进行一次；否则，这些导体应形成两条不同的路径。尽管这种联系的含义通常被认为是肤浅的，并且对国家电气规范 (NEC) 的误解使其可以接受，但在保护人类方面，这件事实际上非常重要。因此，深入研究如何制作合适的接地路径非常重要，这是本文的范围。
