what is the potential difference between line and earth?..

Answer / prashant singh

tha potential of earth is 0 volt. When we measure the
potential between them then the maximum line voltage is the
maximum potential between them.

what is the potential difference between line and earth?..

Answer / sree

I think the voltage between line & earth voltage should be
line voltage. i.e. in 230V system, voltage between line &
nuetral or line & earth should be 230 Volts.Then only test
lamp glows between line &earth or line & neutral.

Answer / pillay

i am of the opinion MR Sree & MR Prashant is right.

Pot Def = line voltage - earth voltage
earth voltage is 0 volts.
line voltage depends on what you are measuring
so line voltage minus zero is = line voltage.

what is the potential difference between line and earth?..

Answer / madhan

At balanced condition, the voltage between them is Zero.
If there is any unbalance,then only some amount of voltage
exist between them.(since current flows thro' neutral at
unbalance)
