If we use earthwire instead of neutral what will happen ??
Step potential appear between the feet ,may be around 5volt & a very small current ( mA ) will flow that human body may not feel.
Now in case of fault, fault current will flow to earth & human body standing on floor experience a shock because of rise of step voltage.
So in this case step & touch voltage is dangerous for survival.
