why neutral is neccessary? ..

Answer / mustafa

There should be a return path for the current.In delta
connected system there is no neutral.In star connected
system you get 240v between phase and neutral.If any single
phase appliance lost its neutral connection you will get
full voltage while getting shock. Neutral work as a return
path in electrical circuit.

IN ANY CKT.SO NTRL FULLFILL THAT OPPOSITE PATH.SO IT IS
NESSARY WITHOUT IT THERE IS A ERROR OF OVER VOLTAGE IN
ELECTRICAL CKT.
