Earthed line in Split power supply in op-amp

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the function of the earthed line with zero potential in split power supplies for operational amplifiers (op-amps), specifically referencing the LM741 model. The earthed line serves not only to prevent electrical shock but also to provide a stable reference point for the op-amp's operation. Participants emphasize the importance of schematic diagrams in clarifying the role of the earthed line in circuit design.

What is the work of the earthed line with zero potential between two power sources in the op-amp.

What is the normal function of Earth wire except for preventing shock?

@Miraj -- can you post an equivalent schematic diagram of a typical opamp, like an LM741 or similar? That will make it easier for us to discuss your question.
