Can we remove Neutral wire? Importance of Neutral wire

It is really great, easy and direct explanation, once the person understands the idea precisely he would explain it clearly as you did. Thanks for your golden efforts

[@syedmuzammilabbas3097]

Wow, one of the best explanations i ever listened on KZbin. I want to add some practical application of not using neutral wire. For instance in transmission line we can not provide a neutral wire as we don't connect load

[@outerspacekaloy]

I plugged a 110V television to a 220V outlet and had it blown in a few seconds, this explains that occurrence that happened more than a decade ago. Thanks Dr. Electrical Guy.

[@goaliedude32]

That should never be possible. Wes the neutral missing somewhere? 220v receptacles should have a completely different shape so 120v plugs should never fit

[@wnicora]

[@thevardhan5673]

1)Sir at 2:17 how loads will work without neutral wire or without low potential path for each phase. 2) Sir in case of balanced single phase system do we need neutral wire ?

[@tusharupadhyay]

Bro That explanation was very easy to follow Thank You!

[@heronimousbrapson863]

In North American practice, the wye point of the primary in wye-delta three phase transformer banks (wye-primary; delta-secondary), is often disconnected from the neutral to balance the secondary voltages. This allows the wye point to "float".

[@zwang9607]

Thanks for sharing. If the neutral wire detected amps value, which is not negligible, can we assume the 3 phase loads are not balanced? Second question, if we found the voltage on each phase is not identical, can we assume there might be a problem with the neutral wire?

You should never never never connect a neutral to ground

[@amararyan4613]

Nice explanation sir!

[@russellteejaymolina6736]

That was nice and clear explanation, I just have one question in mind, in the unbalance load without neutral, voltages in all three phase will become unbalance too, but where does the unbalance current path back to the source if there is no more neutral conductor.

[@jijovarghese1987]

Very well explained. For single phase system neutral wire size should be equal to phase wire. What do you think?

[@GauravJ]

Not necessary. It can be less as well. Depends upon the system

[@jijovarghese1987]

@@GauravJ for example for a house supplied by single phase in that case whatever be the current flowing through the phase is flowing through the neutral wire also. In my house neutral wire gt heated up and burnt due to less wire size compare to phase wire in main switch. There were no loose connection problem or the case of short circuit, its just the neutral wire from main switch is not enough size to carry return current.

[@trimafs]

Dear sir, i have 3 questions, 1. What will happen if we joint two different transformer neutral wire together 2. What will happen if we connect load phase wire from 1 transformer and neutral with 2nd transformer 3. In large UPS system there is 3 core wire for 3-phase inputs, but out of ups is 3 phase with neutral, how we get this neutral on UPS output

[@AmanKhan-ec6lg]

Sir great explanation.. But i have 2 questions.. 1- Is A transformer of an inverter similar to distribution transformer.. I mean a small tranformer also has a neutral wire or it difference from distribution transformer?? 2- if neutral make balance of each load of a house then why sometimes we face the problems of low or high voltage in our house??

[@_stardust__]

Suppose, we take a mcb, connect 3 phases in its input and short the 3 output terminals and turn ON the mcb. What will happen? Will there be a short circuit or the common point of the mcb output will behave like a neutral point?

[@ranjan1436]

what about non-linear inductive loads & harmonics in the system, can we use the neutral wire size half the phase size

[@GauravJ]

Yes (I think neutral current will not be more than phase current). In worst case, where waveforms are badly distorted, we can use neutral cable same size as other phase wire.

[@ananthharitsa3428]

After watching this video, I wanted to write this. First, we understand the CURRENT in a simple way. We are having an Over Head Tank at every house, right? From there we are having connections to our bath rooms, kitchen, utility etc. with the pipe line (Plumbing line). Once we open the tap, the water will flow from the Over Head Tank to the tap through the pipe line. We use / consume that water. Consider, you are having a Geyser at your house. It consumes current to operate. If we give some current by turning on the switch (Same as Water in the pipe line to the Tap) with required force, (Voltage) the Geyser will draw / Consume the power (As designed). Wires used in this are the Conductors which carry the current same as pipe line which carries water. Here the Power source would be Transformer same as Over Head Tank for water. We can draw the current as much as we required to our electrical gadgets. (But the transformer can not store the current as we store the water in Over Head Tank, Current comes directly from the Generating Station through Transformer) Example: Geyser Power (P) = 1000 Watts (Consider as Consumption of Water (Quantity) with specified force) Current (I) =? (Consider as Water which you are going to consume) Voltage (V) = 220 V (Consider as Pressure of Water flowing in the Pipe line) Formula: P = V X I That is, 1000 = 220 X I So Current (I) = 1000/220 = 4.5 Amps (Consider, you consumed 4.5 Litre of water) There is No Minus Current as told in this video. (Think about the Water, how will you minus the water?) Neutral Current will be zero if all the 3-Phase current is same. (Balanced) “All the current meeting at junction is Zero” according to Kirchhoff’s Current Law Consider, there are three houses with single phase power supply connection with different phases (R, Y B). House R - Consuming 5Amps House Y - Consuming 8Amps House B - Consuming 10Amps Then the Neutral Current would be √(R2 + Y2 + B2 - RY - RB - YB) √(52 + 82 + 102 - 5X8 - 5X10 - 8X10) √(25 + 64 + 100 - 40 - 50 - 80) √(189 - 170) = √19 = 4.36 Amps So, in this case, the unbalanced 3-Phase load Neutral Current will be 4.36 Amps. The Neutral Current would have been zero, if each Phase current would have 5 or 8 or 10Amps Neutral current will be high if the load is not equal in 3-Phase circuit. But it will be less when compare to each phase Maximum current. So always we use Half of the Phase Cable size for Neutral in 3-Phase loads, considering the balanced load.

[@unifiedsparks693]

Sir I have a doubt typically in India ground and neutral are internally connected and both are earthed So some power from source would go to earth rather than return to power source itself Also why we use two seperate wires nutral and ground instead of single wire as both are the same

[@kimballscarr]

But India has many gurus for guidance on the subject. Actually it is the same everywhere I know of America, England, the civilized world and of course India would be included. Sort of like the Common Law we all share. He has explanation of floating neutrals too, FYI.

Sir, Correct me if I'm wrong, Will Removing neutral wire will result in an Open Circuit? If that's so, then how can there be unbalance in voltage? If a system is being supplied with 230 V from the source, how can it increase by itself to 350 V ?
