what is the difference between earth and neutral?
Answer Posted / shirish meherishi
Neutral: actualy electricity is the form of energy & energy
never stops so it always flow & use the shortest path,if
its flow through the path we design we says that path as
machines but still it has follow its own path & that is
losses so i/p= o/p+losses for this closed loop neutral is
necessary to make the closed path for flow of energy if
this is interal design of circuit we says neutral.
Earth: actualy earth (surface) is behaves like a possitive
charged & eneryf always flow from high potential to low
means every thing in universe is trying to get its
equilibriem condition so same in electricity if we conect
the earth it behaves like a nutral in ckt.means return path
for open loops this make the closed ckt.& ur equipements
start.
to undersatand better just take an eg: of 3 phase star
system without neutral their one phase will behave like a
return path. means closed ckt loop.
thats why to protect the equipements & human always earth
is important example surge or lightining.
