Answer / sundar
neutral wire is negative current but high voltage current is
passing line and current is flow throw the earth wire is
supply to ground

Answer / trupti
both r somehow relatedd 2 zero potential,but d diff is,-
neutral conn is done within ckt,connected 2 ckt components,
whereas earthing is completely related 2 user safty in case
due 2 contact betn ckt n metal casing,the casing(wh is nt
supposed 2 b at higher potential)has voltage.
a ckt can definately work w/o a neutral,but not w/o a gnd
