when ur using single phase type of load for a 3.5core power
cable .Why neutral is .5 and how much current in the
neutral if we consider neutral as a reverse path for three
phases.

Answer Posted / kishan

If the current in all three phases are equal,the current in
the neutral is zero,hence the neutral conductor is half the
size of Phase cable.
