For earth fault protection on the windings of a delta connected transformer. Used in MV distribution. An earth fault current return path is provided by connecting a Neutral Earthing
Compensator (NEC) between the three phases of the power system and the earth
system. This is done at the source of the supply.
The NEC transformer winding has a Zig-zag configuration with no secondary winding. The
impedance of the winding is high when there is no fault on the system resulting in only a
small magnetising current in the transformer windings. The Zig-zag winding configuration
results in a low impedance when an earth fault condition occurs. By inserting resistance
between the neutral of the Zig-zag transformer and earth, the earth fault currents can be
limited to any desired value. The resistance value and rating has been standardised to
allow an earth fault current of 300 amp for 10 seconds, although some older installations
may still operate at the old standard of 600 amps.
You can not have a "neutral earth" the "neutral" and the "earth" are separate wires/connections and should not be cross connected or muddled up.
A grounded neutral will be at earth potential. A floating neutral will be at a voltage dependent upon the voltage imbalance between phases, and the design of the transformer.
If you connected neutral and earth (ground) to each lead in an LED and it glowed then this would be evidence of a ground fault.
Earth is neutral, but only at the distribution panel and upstream from it. Downstream of the distribution panel, earth and neutral shall not interchange or cross connect their connections or their roles - earth is protective ground - and neutral the current carrying return conductor.
Yes, a loose neutral wire can effect the operation of Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker.
You can not have a "neutral earth" the "neutral" and the "earth" are separate wires/connections and should not be cross connected or muddled up.
A compensator for looks only. Air soft "weapons" don't generate enough recoil for one to be needed.
The compensator is causing the action to bind, or the additional weight is preventing the slide from moving freely.
It is done by connecting the neutral to earth at the transformer that produces the three-phase supply. If the three phase wire supply equal currents, there is no current in the neutral wire and its whole length stays at earth potential, but if there is current in the neutral it produces a small voltage on the neutral at places away from the transformer.
Neutral-earthing reactors or Neutral grounding reactors are connected between the neutral of a power system and earth to limit the line-to-earth current to a desired value under system earth fault conditions.

No
The noun would be Compensator

Field, Neutral, Earth. You only need a Field and Earth, the Neutral terminal can be left out.
I see that the cutts compensator was available on the auto-5 light weight which was made from 1947-1967.I would have to assume that this option was available to the buyer of the sweet-sixteen model also.This compensator was also installed by gunsmiths across the nation.
