Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In areas where water can accumulate, there is an increased risk of electrical shock. Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCIs) are designed to quickly detect ground faults and shut off the power to prevent electrical shocks. Therefore, GFCIs are the best choice for grounding computing and other electrical equipment in such areas. UPS and HVAC are not designed for grounding purposes, and EDS is used to prevent static electricity discharge, not for grounding purposes.
