Answer / j.krishnamoorthy
NEUTRAL is a return path of current in single phase loads.
However in a balanced three phase loads NEUTRAL will not
carry any current. In case of unbalanced three phase load
conditions NEUTRAL will carry algebraic sum of all three
phase currents.
EARTH wire is connected to a metallic body (non-live) parts
of a machine. In case of insulation failure EARTH wire will
act as a return path, to protect humans from electric shock.
For better protection, resistance of EARTH wire is
maintained below 5 ohms.

If a control valve is hunting means means if we are giving 50% to the cv, the cv will open at 51% then slowly slwoly it will reaches 49% , then it will reaches again 50%, this type of action occured frequntly.. so what to do for solve this problem. The possible cause is in volume booster or positioner's relay.. positioner is double acting .. and make siemens..sipart.The cv is double acting and mounted for anti surge operation, it having 4 nos. volume booster, one sov, one positioner, etc..?
