Why the Transformer Nuetral is grounded?

Answer Posted / bhaganna kolkur

When fault occurs in anyone of the phase then the fault current is increases 3 to 4 times more than the normal current so it will reduces voltage at secondry side.thise will affect the system (costly equipment) so to avoid thise neutral connection is done
