Non-horror game has a horror section

It's a colloquialism, autist. We call it a ground because that's what everyone calls it.

I believe devices that have a ground have a separate ground wire that you need to attach to ground.
Its a completely separate wire that you need to attach with a screw like you would the internal wirings of the house.
The other aspect is that you don't necessarily need a ground to use your electronic device so they may just ignore it.
It's is a VERY FUCKING GOOD IDEA to have a standard ground so if something shorts inside the electric device you won't get electrocuted by simply touching it.

>INDIA has a ground
>Japan does not

what in the fuck

>Emerging shitholes can use the latest technology straight away without having to maintain an outdated infrastructure
Gee.

I work in electronics and we call a connection common if its intended to be connected, because a short is a connection of a non-common electrical circuitry. Idiots bring me shorts to pull out all day or batch reject a whole load of boards and I look at the board tell them its common and hand it back to them. No one calls grounding "common"

Why do you have to unplug and plug things?

You still have to go to the outlet to hit the switch. At that point is it really that much less work to flip the switch versus pulling the cord out and sticking it back in?

UK has a switch, it's just not pictured

They all have switches.

>Changing our happy smiley to a shitbull

You can also jam a Schuko plug in an italian socket with a bit of force.
Works, but you won't have ground of course

israeli one is outdated and upside down

Tell me like the idiot burger I am, Yea Forums. What's the benefit of all these different styles of outlet?

I don't know

worldstandards.eu/why-no-universal-plug/

People don't want to change from the one they have, get adapters or switch all their electrical equipment.

You would consider a concrete floor to be ground? I would consider that to be a floor. Any walking surface that isn't made of naturally occuring dirt, clay or stone is a floor. All else is ground. Earth is reserved specifically for dirt.

Additionally, "ground" is easier and simpler to work into a sentence. You can ground a circuit, but you cannot "earth" a circuit. You would "connect it to earth"

UK plug best plug. It's one of the only things we got right.

Why do most countries have single huge outlets?

But why is it so enormous?

so your house doesn't burn down

Ah yes I forgot how houses in NA have a one hundred percent electrical fire rate

um I think you got Israel wrong. I have it on good authority that there's a coin slot on their outlets

>Governments change outlet standards every decade or so to force people to spend money, i cant think of any other reason, besides extruding the holes inwards to better secure and isolate the socket
>Tech giants will hopefully force USB or globally standardized outlets one day

better safe than sorry. You live in wooden drywall shacks.

Isn't he a SJW?

Won't any europlug fit in that Italian one? You'll just not get earth which I assume is the middle one.

Yes you can. You can also cut the wires, remove the socket and link the cables. Its not the safest thing to do without the ground you risk to fuck up yourself in case of circuit breaking, overtension or... other.

How do you ground it if their are only two sockets?

What I mean is that all European sockets in that collage are basically the same one, with different solutions for ground. So you can pretty much charge your phone anywhere in continental Europe with your own charger, and the standard grounded plug works with both the French and German sockets, as well as all the Russian ungrounded.

The collage is pretty misleading too because most countries have both grounded and ungrounded variants, while this makes it look like countries either have or don't have ground.

/CUM/ master race

ay blyad why you no have ground vladimir cyka

It puts the current through the EARTH fault loop which is referenced to EARTH at supply, hence being called EARTH

just flip the switch of whatever device you’re using

The pins aren't identical functionally.

>implying this isn't the best kind of plug

The European one is a pain in the ass because the like hanf of the plug goes deep into the socket, not just the pins

And that's why it's shit.

That's one of the methods they duck taped over an issue.
>If the plug isn't flush with the wall the prongs are exposed
>If the plug is sitting on the face of the wall anything that put pressure on the top would bend the prongs

Their answer was putting the plug deeper in the wall itself rather than just use 3 prongs, a ground and insulating the base of the prongs
