what is the difference between earth and neutral?

Answer Posted / kaushlendra

at the genereting stations the conductor which is grounded
very deeply is known as neutral.actually we require two
terminals for a equipment to operate.one is phase and other
is neutral.the current enters through the phase conductor
and leaves through the neutral conductor.but the equipments
like press,cooler have three terminals.the third one is
earth.earth conductor is connected to the body of the
equipment ended in the ground(means we take a long rod and
insert into the ground deeply,so that it does not heat).
