The electric appliance has an electric load (205), and a driving element (215) for selectively energizing/de-energizing the electric load (205). The driving element (215) has a first driving terminal (A1) coupled to a first load terminal (T1) of the electric load, a second driving terminal (A2) coupled to a first power supply terminal (TN), and a control terminal (G) for switching on/off the driving element (215) thereby allowing said selective energization/de-energization, respectively. The electric appliance also has a switching element (230) for selectively coupling a second power supply terminal (TL) to a second load terminal (T2) of the electric load (205). The electric appliance (100) further has a detection arrangement (210,220) configured for detecting a first electrical quantity (VA1) at the first driving terminal (A1), and at least one between a second electrical quantity (VT2,CL,VT2,OP) at the second load terminal (T2) and a power supply electrical quantity (VMAINS) at the second power supply terminal (TL). The detection arrangement (210,220) has a coupling element (220) coupling the first driving terminal (A1) to the second load terminal (T2), and a control unit (210) coupled to the first driving terminal (A1), and to at least one between the second load terminal (T2) and the second power supply terminal (TL). The control unit (210) is further configured for determining dispersion of electric power towards ground in the electric load (205) according to the detected electrical quantities."},"analysis":{"summary":null,"layman_explanation":null,"technical_analysis":null,"business_analysis":null,"faqs":null,"topics":[],"tech_cluster":null},"seo":{"title":"Method and circuit for determining dispersion of electric power towards ground in electric appliances","description":"An electric appliance (100) is disclosed.
