Diffrectiate between earthing and neutral

Answer Posted / surya

earthing & neutral both are grounding electrode but in case
of earthing always the potential be zero but in case of
neutral the potential is truely dependent on either the
load is balanced or not.if unbalanced load than somevoltage
must present in neutral wire.again we use earthing as
neutral for load but the condition is the resistance of
earthing must be low or on zero potential.

i have a 4 Mva transformer 34.5 kv / 480-277 v and i used 2 parallel 3200 amp bus duct for the secondary feeder using 3 ply of bus bar ( 3/8" x 5" ) as a common where the flexible link terminated and 6300 amps breaker for the main, the lower bus duct reaches 70 degrees and the upper bus duct reaches 55 degrees when i used thermal scanner. why the temperature is not balance when the load reaches 3600 amps.
