In Reply to: Ground is the wrong term today. posted by Ron Oehlert on April 26, 2007 at 14:32:44:
A Safety Ground is only required when we operate our electronics via household AC electrical wiring AND metal parts of the device (such as cable connections) can be touched. An automobile typically uses the entire metallic frame strucuture as it's electical system Common return pathway (an all-plastic car would require duplicate return wiring) but absolutely NO direct Earth Ground connection is neccessary for automobile battery-operated electronics. Same for battery powered portable audio devices. So why refer to any electrical connection in such circuts as a *ground*?
