WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEUTRAL AND EARTHING
Answer / maddoxx
neutral in sigle phase line is the return path which is normally(off ckt) at 0 v.grounding is done for protection and current flows only during fault.Grounding is done basically on the non current carrying part of the device or system so if there is failure of insulation in motor or device the current also flows in chesis of device. so if we do grounding it flows impedance path) to ground(earth).and thereby protecting device from higher current.
in 3 phase line neutral has no current in balanced cond'n.But has in unbalanced.so this extra current can be bypass by connecting neutral to ground or to the supply neutral(which is also grounded).
"SO NEUTRAL IS A RETURN PATH(1 PHASE) AND GROUNDING IS A BYPASS PATH IN FAULT CONDITION ONLY"

How we select the cable rating
kindly tell me how the load on generator increase by just increasing the fuel of prime mover, as if for exampple 20 MW gen set is synchronized the load ramps from zero to 20 MW gradully and during this procress only fuel of prime mover increases. Which thing determines the load on generator with respect to fuel
