Q. What happens if a steel box is not properly grounded?

Answer

Electrical power spikes If a container isn't grounded, electricity can flow freely within. Electrocution or a fire might result from this. Electricity can pass through the body to the earth if there is no ground connection or a weak ground connection in the home. If this happens, becomes the ground connection, which may be quite dangerous. Behind each wall outlet is a metal box whose function is to house the outlet's wiring and ground connection, which runs to the breaker box. Multiple potentially harmful issues might arise in a home that is not grounded or is grounded incorrectly.
