what is the difference between Earthing,Grounding and
neutral?

Answer Posted / ramesh

Earthing is the path through which the current flows towards
earth in faulty condition to protect the system because in
faulty situation this current
will be several times higher than the normal operation.

Neutral is the return path for the current flows in healthy
operating condition

Grounding are the path for which heavy amount of in crush
current will passes
these referring as two types one is Chassis ground for get
neural connection
other is for faulty condition

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
