No, three phase motors do not actually have neutral line unless you are referring to the motor control centre where a neutral line is required when your control coils and other components are single phase operated

Condition of three phase in which there is no need of neutral?
A delta-connected system is described as being a three-phase, three-wire, system, and doesn't have a neutral. But a balanced star (wye) connected load (e.g. a three-phase induction motor) doesn't actually require a neutral.
On a 220 volt electric motor which is the neutral wire L1 L2 or L3?
If the motor wire numbers are L1, L2 and L3, it is not a single phase motor. It is a three phase motor. Also for future reference, a 220 volt single phase motor does not use a neutral.
Why is there no neutral point for delta?
There is no neutral in a delta connection, because that is the definition of delta, a power configuration where current flows from phase hot to phase hot. The loads are A-B, B-C, and C-A. Contrast this with star, where there is a neutral, and the loads are A-N, B-N, and C-N.
Why neutral not conect in 3phase motor?
A 3 phase motor does not require a neutral conductor because the impedances that make up the stator coils are of equal magnitude and it is what is known as a balanced 3 phase load. If the loads of a wye connected 3 phase system were unbalanced, i.e. the load currents in each of the 3 phases are different, then the unbalanced currents would require a return path to the service transformer via a neutral conductor. The neutral conductor is the transformer centre tap and is usually earthed locally. ANOTHER ANSWER The impedance of each phase winding of a three phase motor is identical (we call it a 'balanced load'). For a star (wye) connected motor, the phasor sum of three identical phase currents is zero, so no current will flow through a neutral, so a neutral isn't required. For a delta-connected motor, there is no provision for a neutral.
Can a 380volt's 3 phase motor can be converted to 230volt's three phase motor?
Only if you want to damage it. "277" Volt 3-phase will usually mean 277 from each phase to neutral, and 480 from phase to phase. By "230 3-phase", you likely mean 120 phase-to-neutral, and 208 phase-to-phase. If you really mean 230, then you are probably NOT talking about a three phase motor.
When does a motor not need a neutral wire?
If the motor is operated from a three phase three wire distribution system the motor will not need a neutral wire.
How do you use a one phase motor in place of a three phase motor?
To use a single/one phase motor instead of a three phase motor is possible if you have a three phase power supply as you will only need to tap one of the three phases together with neutral and an earthwire, however to use a three phase motor instead of a single phase will require the provision of three phase power supply.

A delta-connected system is described as being a three-phase, three-wire, system, and doesn't have a neutral. But a balanced star (wye) connected load (e.g. a three-phase induction motor) doesn't actually require a neutral.
Why neutral cross section is half the phase in three phase cable while it has to carry current of summation of all phase..?
The current carried by the neutral of a three phase four wire system is the un balanced current. If the three phase system was completely balanced on all three phases there would be no need for a neutral, eg a three phase motor. This neutral current will be less that the phase current so a reduction in the neutral size is allowed.
On a 220 volt electric motor which is the neutral wire L1 L2 or L3?
If the motor wire numbers are L1, L2 and L3, it is not a single phase motor. It is a three phase motor. Also for future reference, a 220 volt single phase motor does not use a neutral.

Can you convert a three-phase motor to a single-phase motor?
Use only one of the legs (L1-L3), and the neutral. Some three phase circuits don't have a neutral. If that is the case, then you cannot run single phase.CommentYou don't need a neutral, providing the voltage is appropriate, you can get a single-phase supply by connecting the load between any two lines.
What circuit you can use to run three phase motor?
It must be a three phase supply service to run a three phase motor.
Can you use 600VOLT motor in 220VOLT supply through a transformer?
Usually with a voltage of 600 volts the motor will be three phase. To use a transformer with that motor you will need a three phase 240 volt service. These days utility companies are moving away from three phase 240 and substituting it with 120/208. The 208 three phase service has the added bonus that 120 volts can be obtained from the star point (grounded neutral).
When is a motor in star or delta connection?
Star (or wye) connection is where each of the three phases has a fourth conductor, neutral, as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to neutral, which is also grounded back at the distribution center. There will be five total connections, phase A, B, and C, neutral, and (protective earth) ground. Delta connection is where each of the three phases uses the prior phase as its current return. Current flow in this configuration is phase to phase, and there is no neutral, though there is still a ground. There will be four total connections, phase A, B, and C, and (protective earth) ground.
