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.

Answer / brijesh

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.

Answer / awais arain

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.

Body earthing is used for body leakage current to earth without

transformer 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 separately properly earthed.Minimum 3meter
