### Description

The Ground element is a single port component providing a reference voltage in electrical circuits. The potential at the ground node is zero. Every electrical circuit has to contain at least one ground element.

### Default properties

- always active: no
- direct-feedthrough: yes
- zero-crossing: no
- mode: no
- number/sizes of inputs: 1 / 1
- number/sizes of outputs: 0 /
- number/sizes of activation inputs: 0 /
- number/sizes of activation outputs: 0 /
- continuous-time state: no
- discrete-time state: no
- name of modelica function: Ground

### Interfacing function

`Ground.sci`

### Modelica model

    class Ground "Ground"
    	Pin p;
    equation
    	p.v = 0;
    end Ground;
