If the ground wire is holding power, you have much bigger problems than a wire being bare.

That will never hold power

Electrician - the paper just helps in some minor way for installation and manufacturing. And you are 100% correct about why having a bare ground is sometimes beneficial.

I'm not an electrician but I've learned a lot from tiktok. The paper is there for the electrician to rip off and leave on the ground

Many other places around the world have insulated ground conductors for easier identification and circuit discrimination, (GFCI / RCD) protection at the panel is a lot more common outside of the US, as is doing resistance and ground leakage testing (with a mobile testing machine) with any new circuit or after any modifications to circuits, and as part of electrical safety tests that have to be carried out every ~10 years in any building in most parts of Europe.

Everyone in here talking about the ground wires and I’m wondering how 8ga wire is feeding that panel🤷♂️

In Europe there's no bare ground wires, or any no insulated wiring. Totally different requirements, wire thiknes, voltage and lots more

None electricians giving electrical advice is wild brother there 100% supposed to be bare in most residential panels as you can see it’s a sub panel because the neutrals and grounds and separate I hope this helps

right. it usually comes in a green color in different parts on the world. so its unusual to see bare copper in the panel

the paper is just to help separate.
