What is the difference between EARTH & NEUTRAL?

Answer Posted / somesh saran

earth and the neutral are two different things.

Earthing mean connecting of non current carry mettalic
parts directly to the great mass called earth.
and we found it every where.

While on the other hand

Neutral we have to create it.
for a star connection we get it from the point where all
the phases balances each other.
and for delta connection (if reqiured) we create it by
using zig-zag transformer.
