Description

../../_images/ground.svg

The ground block implements an electrical connection to the ground.

Note

PLECS electrical circuits do not require to be grounded at one or more points. The ground block just provides a convenient means to connect distant points to a common potential. In SPICE electrical circuits, it is mandatory to put a ground.

Warning

Electrical grounds in PLECS electrical circuits are not connected to electrical grounds in SPICE electrical circuits.
