Ungrounded systems do not readily identify single ground faults, which represents a significant safety hazard as a user or technician may not discover that a fault exists until contact is made with a conductor that would have had no voltage to ground had it not been for the fault. They can also create other additional double-fault scenarios that do not exist in grounded systems that require an overcurrent protection device on all positive and negative wires in a circuit to be properly mitigated.
