Do you have to connect the ground wire of the water heater to the wall? Don’t connect it wrong. Water heaters are available in every household. Almost every household in the hometown has a water heater. If there is no water heater, taking a bath is very troublesome. You have to manually boil the water. If the family has a large population, it will not be so easy to boil water. Do you know that the ground wire of the water heater is dared to be connected to the wall? Many people probably don't understand it. If it is connected incorrectly, it is easy to leak electricity. Don't underestimate this water heater, it is live, if you are not careful when installing it, it is easy to have safety hazards. When water heaters were installed in the past, especially in rural areas, there was no grounding wire. Nowadays, many homes have grounding wires. However, it is useless to install the grounding wire in the wall and cannot protect it, so don’t install it here. If you suffer a loss, the leakage of electricity is dangerous. The ground wire cannot be connected to the wall, how should I connect it? The ground wire must be a protective wire drawn from the electric box separately, and then connected to the home water heater and socket. If the water heater is connected to the ground wire, if there is an accidental leakage during the bath, the current will not pass through the human body, but directly flow to the ground. Therefore, if there is a ground wire, there is no need to worry about leakage, which can protect our lives. Safety. PS: Remember to use resistance to test the grounding wire. Its resistance value cannot be greater than 4 ohms. If it exceeds this value, it will be the same as if it is not connected. If your home's ground wire is connected to the wall, it does not meet the requirements of electricians and does not work. If it is connected, it is just an ordinary wire, and it has no protective effect. Of course, it is not a hard requirement to connect the grounding wire, but people who pay attention to safety will still install it. If your water heater does not have a grounding wire, I suggest that it is best to unplug the plug when taking a bath, and do not connect to the power supply. , Otherwise it’s too dangerous to take a bath, and there are always safety hazards. However, the more expensive water heaters on the market now have their own power-off function. If your home does not have this power-off function, you can also install a power wall, leakage protection switch, etc., which can still be used to some extent. Protective. Do you think it is necessary to install a ground wire for the water heater? Welcome to express your point of view!
