why neutral wire don't shock?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / sdr
To experience a shock,there must be a potential difference
between you & the wire you are going to touch it.As neutral
is always at zero potential,it doesn't shock you when you
touch it.

Answer / sangram patil
shocks made where potential difference is available, in
between neutral & you there is nothing difference because
you are standing on earth. also Neutral is always Zero if
load is balance so you dont have shock by neutral.

Answer / raghavendran.r
As mentioned in 4 and 6, the neutral is at 0 potential.But if due to improper earthing or due to unbalance, neutral shifting occurs then neutral will be at a higher potential than the earth.At that time if neutral is touched then it will cause electrocution.

Answer / raja
neutrol wire is connected to ground,,so that entair fault
current flowing thow the ground..so its doesnot shock
