About the earth ground symbol

The symbol is read or spoken as "earth ground" and represents a grounding point in electrical and electronic schematic diagrams. It is one of several ground symbols used in technical drawings, where it specifically denotes a direct connection to the physical earth, as opposed to a chassis or signal ground. This character appears in engineering documentation, circuit diagrams, and standards that follow the IEC or other international conventions for electrical symbols.
