What will happen if a phase and neutral test by a mutimeter shows continuity?

If the test shows that there is a continuity between the phase leg and the neutral with no load connected, then that circuit should not be energized. If the circuit was energized then the fuse or breaker protecting that leg will trip the circuit open.

If in the three phase connection phase to phase voltage is 400v what will be the phase neutral voltage?
The formula to use is, phase voltage /1.73 = phase to neutral (ground) voltage.CommentThere is no such thing as a 'phase to phase', or 'phase to neutral' voltage. The correct terms are 'line to line' and 'line to neutral'. So the above answer should read: line voltage/1.73= line to neutral voltage = phase voltage.
How does a phase leg connect to a neutral in an electrical circuit?
A phase leg connects to the neutral through the connected load.
Why neutral is not requied in 3 phase?
As far as I understand, you don't need neutral line for connecting appliances that is 3-phase compilant. You only need the neutral line to connect a single phase appliance, which you connect along with one of the three lines.
What is the voltage for each leg on a 480v 3-phase pannel phase to neutral?
Only one neutral conductor is typically in a 3 phase panel.
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.
Can I test wires from a 3 phase motor to see if its configured in low or high voltage?
Using a multimeter, check the continuity of motor winding from phase to phase ( U to V, V to W , W to U ). Each phase to phase must have a continuity if winding is OK. If any particular phase fails the continuity test, your motor is probably burnt.

What are the phases of continuity implementation?
Phase I: readiness and preparedness PhaseII: activation and relocation (0-12 hrs) Phase III: continuity operations (12hrs-30 days) Phase IV: reconstruction (recovery, mitigation, and termination)
What is the code ruling in the US on 3 phase branch circuits and the neutral?
A three phase system will have 3 phase branch circuits and no 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.
What is polarity test and continuity test?
a test to be conduct for find the phase...
What are the procedures for the connection of single and multi-phase circuits?
Check continuity
What happens when phase to phase line is connected?
If there is a voltage differential from phase to phase, and a conductance (inverse of resistance) between them, then current (amperes) flows. This is no different than phase to neutral, i.e. voltage across conductance generates current, (I = EC, or I = E/A) except that neutral current is zero in a true phase to phase connection.Note that phase angle is always relative. In phase to neutral, it is relative to (typically) neutral; while in phase to phase, it is relative to the other phase. By Fourier Analysis, the difference between two phases of the same frequency, but of different phase angles, is still a sine (or cosine) wave. Also, by Kirchoff's Current Law, (implied, and I will (sort of) not repeat it here), current entering from one phase and equally leaving via another phase will not reflect at all in the neutral conductor.The simple answer is that connecting phase to phase is a short circuit, just like connecting phase to neutral.CommentThere is no such thing as 'phase to phase' or 'phase to neutral'. The correct terms are 'line to line' and 'line to neutral'.
During which phase of the continuity cycle should a test training and exercise program be implemented?
Activation and relocation phase
