Neutral is the Star point (joining of one end of each phase)
of Y connection and for a balenced three phase system.
Neutral voltage w.r.t ground is zero.But the system will
not be perfectly baleced always, for keeping the star point
in zero potential for a un balenced system neutral is
connecting with earth for avoiding neutral fluctation
during fault
