Answer Posted / surendhar
All electrical Circuits have ground point (the reference
point). It may be earth grounding (where reference point
connected to earth) or Chasis grounding (reference point
connected to chasis as in aircraft, car etc) or Floating
ground(where the reference point is not connected
anywhere).
Earthing, where the equipment case is connected to the
earth, to protect the equipment and the people who come in
contact with faulty conditions (Metal case of the equipment
coming in contact with the line).
If neutral is not present (floating neutral), then there
would be significant rise in the voltage at the neutral
point in the star connection (at the load end), because of
unbalancement in all three phases (practical case). This in
turn would affect the equipments connected across each
phase. So Neutral wire connects the neutral point at the
load end and the transformer end, where it would be
grounded. This causes current to flow in the neutral under
unbalanced situation, back to the transfomer, negating the
rise in voltage @ neutral point in load end.

Hi Suppose we have a wye/wye transformer which is grounded at both sides,in this situation, do we have ay ground transformer? in other words, ground transformer can do any thing more (while we have nuetral wire in both sides)? As the last question, what about 3rd harmonic? we have two choices: first using wye/delta transformer + ground transformer and second using wye/wye earthed connection.in the former choice, we dont have 3rd harmoonic at the secondary side but what about Yn/yn conection? do we suffer from 3rd harmonic in the Yn/yn connection?
