why we grounding the neutral of a transformer?

Answer Posted / simon peter

In distribution transformer the secondary side is always in star connection i,.e a neutal piont is drawn. Neutal wire & the core of x-mer is connected to earthing bcs if there is enormous load variation the overall load will b on phase wires hense x-mer might blow off due to increase in the value of hysteresis & eddy losses........
