Answer / madhusudhan

A neutral point is a junction of Three phases in Star
distribution circuit. this neutral should be earthed to
maintain high potential difference between neutral and
phase. when ever there is an unbalanced load distribution in
three phase circuit a emf will flow from one phase to
another phase through this neutral point. due to this
voltage in neutral the the Potential dofference between
phase to neutral gets reduced. so to maintain 0 voltage at
neutral point, neutral has to be earthed to the earth pit.

Answer / siva

neutral is the return path iof current , 3 phase neutral is
taken from junction point (star connection) its like
closing circuit for the load in earth is connected toneutral
in case fault is occur its go through the earth. fix the
earth bit rod in the ground connect to neutral

Answer / masoom raza

neutral is reference from where phase voltage is
measured also it serve the purpose of return path
in three phase.it is possible in Y connection .in
delta it is virtual.while earth is always at O
potential.

it is used reduce the shock hazards in equipment.

earthing is done by connecting the equipment with earth using conductor.
there is no as such method.

there is 3 methods of neutral grounding(not earthing)
1.solidly ground
2.RNS
3.INS

Answer / kapil pareta m.b.m engg clg

neutral is common junction point of star connection of distribution ..........it is most have some specific place.
earth is mean that our device if have create some leakage current that earth wire is transfer the voltage/current in earth......

explain 100 percent and 95 percent earth faults

i have a 4 Mva transformer 34.5 kv / 480-277 v and i used 2 parallel 3200 amp bus duct for the secondary feeder using 3 ply of bus bar ( 3/8" x 5" ) as a common where the flexible link terminated and 6300 amps breaker for the main, the lower bus duct reaches 70 degrees and the upper bus duct reaches 55 degrees when i used thermal scanner. why the temperature is not balance when the load reaches 3600 amps.

I find that underground strip-armoiured,4core,LT PVC cables in an earthed power distribution sytem are occasionly found in charred condition-with no trace of it except ash. Is this because of no proper earth connection/continuity (giving rising to high armour resistance)in the joint enroute or because of insufficient capability (again due to high armour resistance)of cable-armour to carry fault current or due to neglected /unprotected overloading of the cable or due to high armour currents caused by power thefts where only phase(s) are unauthorisely tapped & at the point of poer consumption earth terminal is established by burring underground a not so good earthing rod (or using an underground water pipe for the purpose)
