What is the different between earthing & Neutal..

Answer / monika hassan

Ground or earth in a mains (AC power) electrical wiring
system is a conductor that provides a low impedance path to
the earth to prevent hazardous voltages from appearing on
equipment (the terms "ground" (North American practice)
and "earth" (most other English-speaking countries) are
used synonymously here). Normally a grounding conductor
does not carry current.

Neutral is a circuit conductor (that carries current in
normal operation), which is connected to earth (or ground)
generally at the service panel with the main disconnecting
switch or breaker.

generally at the service panel with the main disconnecting
switch or breaker. the neutral is always connected to earth at the binging of a distribution transformer for avoiding the un balanced condition.
