Duplicate of When a battery is your power source, what is ground?
Nov 26, 2019 at 9:57 comment added winny Not in real life but in any academic circle, you should always include a reference such as ground symbol and again any SPICE simulator requires it.

Nov 26, 2019 at 7:22 comment added Mitu Raj Because voltage is always defined with respect to two points, not one. It is potential 'difference'. So there should be a reference point in every circuit, which we call as ground and considered as '0' V
Nov 26, 2019 at 7:13 comment added Karthikeya Kaza Is it actually 0V at that point? Also, what is the use of defining a voltage reference point?
Nov 26, 2019 at 7:11 comment added user57037 In this circuit there is no physical significance to it. Ground can be a whole huge topic of discussion. But in the context of learning about electronic circuits, ground is just the node defined to be 0 Volts.
Nov 26, 2019 at 7:11 comment added Oldfart No, it is just a common way to define a voltage reference point.
Nov 26, 2019 at 7:09 comment added Karthikeya Kaza @winny so there's no physical significance to it?
Nov 26, 2019 at 7:08 comment added winny You don’t in real life but any simulation tool would require a ground. Also, four way connections like this without a dot to denote a connection is frowned upon
