What is meant by Floating Neutral? how to prent
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / kapil mishra
floating earthing means the neutral is not earth by any
means like solid earthing ,or impedence earthing etc. due
to that if any earth fault occur in any phase the other
phase voltage increase root 3 times from the earth but
faulty phase voltage become zero from the earth. but your
line voltage remain the same.

Floating Neutral Means Neautral is Not Grounded & If there
is Any earth Fault Occured On Any One Phase As A Result Of
that The Voltage Of Other Two Phase Will Be Equal to line
Voltage.

Answer / ankur
The supply neutral point is eathed by a solid link by the
electic supply company.Hence neutral voltage w.r.t earth is
abut 2 to 3 volts. When the neutral link or neutral wire of
supply company breaks, the neutral point starts folating.
depending upon unbalance of the load on three phases, the
voltage on each phase fluctuates from as high as 350-400V to
as low as 50-100V. As a result of tis voltage apears
fluctuating & lights flicker.It normally results in damage
of power supply in various appliances like T.V.& also
damages motors in fans, mixers, fridge etc. of many
consumers in a building.

Answer / ashish
floting neutral means due to if voltage in all three phase
is not same due to asymmetrical load at output then voltage
drop through all phase are not same so neutral point is
shifted from center is prevent by mainten constant load at
all phase

Answer / manoj
floting neutral is one whose voltage is not constant.
it is prevented by use of NGR

What is a transductor ?
Can earth resistance be measured without connecting the earth electrode? and should earthing connections be disconnected What is the effect of connecting two cables of different sizes in parallel with supply? Thanks in Advance. I am intrested to get in touch with some tecnocrats/engineers,my mail i.d is : hiremathvijay@rediffmail.com
Where there is voltage,there must be current.Is this right or wrong??
How to select a cable size according to load
wht is the difference between volatge and wattage ? how can it be converted ? (like 15w = 6v ) like tht... ? actually what tht means ?
the distance from my office to d.g is aprox 400mtrs and voltage drops ibn my office near about 40 volt what should i do p[ls suggest.
i am electrical engineer i cant get job in pure electrical industry ,but i got job in instrumentation field whether there is good scope for me, as i am fresher i m not well with the industrial trends so any experienced engineer pls reply me
How can we calculate single phase load into three phase load
what is the funtion of conservator in transformers?
my field of interest is T&D. plz tell something about that.
What is cut-off rate?
sir, how to select the cable size, what is the parameters use ang what is the formulas use for this cable size calculations. please tell me.
