separated? what is distance between two is required as per
is?

Answer / pramod sawant
1.Body earthing is used for body leakage current to earth &
not human body harmful.
2. Neutral earthing is used for
unbalance current pass through neutral & its goes to earth
& not effect on other phases voltages/load.

body earthing used for transformer leakage current to avoid
human injury and use for transformer protection.
Neutral earthing used for transformer unbalance current of
transformer.

Answer / vimal
It's not neutral earthing.its called neutral grounding. Like NGR NTR

Body earthing is ued for earth the leakage current passing
through equipment body. the other purpose is to protect
human body against passing the leakage current.
Neytral earthing is used for giving an earth path to
unbalanced current. It also ballance the voltage in each
phase.

if not separated,suppose neutral is not working
properly,then in case of lightning on the body of
tranformer then very large current will flow through body
earthing wire to neutral earthing wire.So it will be
dangerous for transformer.
so to avoid from destruction both body earthing & neutral
earthing are separatly properly earthed.

what is the difference between isolator and circuit breaker
what is the difference between earthing and grounding of electric circuits
why do motors burn out? I understand why adding parallel loads to a power source means more current moves through the circuit, and can destroy circuit elements by overheating. What about when you have a vaccuum cleaner intake flush against a floor, a room fan sitting directly against a wall, or a power drill trying to drill through something too hard?
