Answer / sdr

To experience a shock,there must be a potential difference
between you & the wire you are going to touch it.As neutral
is always at zero potential,it doesn't shock you when you
touch it.

Answer / gangachalam

because it is return path of flowing current

Answer / sangram patil

shocks made where potential difference is available, in
between neutral & you there is nothing difference because
you are standing on earth. also Neutral is always Zero if
load is balance so you dont have shock by neutral.

Answer / raghavendran.r

As mentioned in 4 and 6, the neutral is at 0 potential.But if due to improper earthing or due to unbalance, neutral shifting occurs then neutral will be at a higher potential than the earth.At that time if neutral is touched then it will cause electrocution.

Answer / raja

neutrol wire is connected to ground,,so that entair fault
current flowing thow the ground..so its doesnot shock

Answer / rajesh

my doubt is ,
during the positive cycle voltage drops at the load.but
during the negative half cycle current is drawn from
earth.so potntial should appear at the neutral during -ve
half cycles.
then we should feel shock?

Answer / cena

There is no current
flow through the
neutral wire

Answer / visamipatel2008

because neutral have no voltage & no current

Answer / varun

because normally the neutral wire doesnot carry current
