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 / gangachalam

because it is return path of flowing current

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

Answer / rajesh

my doubt is ,
during the positive cycle voltage drops at the load.but
during the negative half cycle current is drawn from
earth.so potntial should appear at the neutral during -ve
half cycles.
then we should feel shock?

Answer / cena

There is no current
flow through the
neutral wire

Answer / visamipatel2008

because neutral have no voltage & no current

Answer / varun

because normally the neutral wire doesnot carry current

In India the supply voltage is 230 volt A.C. During the negative half cycle phase becomes neutral and neutral become phase? or what will happen during negative half cycle? how the electrons flow during positive and negative half cycle?

In power point wiring,often,we use less size of earth wire compared to phase & neutral wire and we use big size pin in pug top. how is it justified? can we use small size cable for earthing?

6 Answers   Siva, TATA,

We have a 12MW power plant & we inject 5-6MW power to Orissa GRID. For this we have a 33KV/11KV switch yard having 12.5MVA power transformer. Some times we draw power during emergency. It is observed that during Export or Import for load less than 500Kw the power factor is decreasing to 0.3 . This is happening only during export or import. During island condition TG power factor OK.Our capacitor bank is provided with our Power plant auxilliary load. Please suggest how I can we improve our power factor during low load (GRID).
