Answer / n manivannan

a) ? Is it Single Phase system or 3 phase system

b) If it is Single phase system, full current will flow
thro Neutral. Current flows thro Phase, Load and Returns
thro Neutral. ? Clear

c) If it is 3 Phase system ( Star Connected with Neutral)
and if the Connected LOAD IS BALANCED, No Current will flow
thro Neutral. If the LOAD IS UNBALANCED, Unbalance current
will flow thro Neutral

I will stop with this. Otherwise we have to write more
