Answer / vasudeva rao
earth is protection system against high voltages but
neutral is not a protection system. neutral just acts as a
return path not for protection.

Actually earthing is a safety wire which can protect the
equipment as well as human beings.But nutral is the return
path of the current through which current has completed the
ckt and flow through the load.

Answer / veer1981
The Earth wire is a safety protective wire that normally
carries no current.The Neutral is the normal "return" wire.
In systems where the load is supplied from only one Hot
(or "Live") wire, the Neutral completes the circuit and
carries current back from the load to the power station.

Answer / abhishek singh
NEUTRAL provides opposite path for the current in any
electrical ckt.but EARTHING means to give undisirable
charges or simply say current to earth to reduce sock.
