As per the theory current doesn’t flows in Neutral, but
practically it is not applicable, explain why?

Answer Posted / nanjunda

Current flows in neutral also but in threephase circuits
the neutral of transformer is earthed, hence reference
voltage from ground to the neutral always showing zero or
upto 7 volts. hence even if we touch the live neutral wire
with bare foot also we wont experience shock.
