what is the use of neutral?

Answer Posted / krr

neutral is used for safety......when there is a earth fault
occurs by connecting the device in neutral we can sense the
fault. Also to avoid multiple ground faults.To avoid arcing
ground in which if there is a fault between phase to earth
arc is produced due to which current flowing to ground is
very low, overcurrent can not operate on this small current
hence connecting the device in the neutral we can avoind
the high arcing grounds.For core balancing also neutral is
used.
