A neutral wire provides a return path for the hot lead while an earth or "ground" wire is provided as a safety function only that is not normally intended to carry current except for the purpose of operator protection.
Yes, the red wire is a positive wire (+) and the black wire is a negative wire (-) :D
Making a load On, By using a clamp meter for measuring the current in the wires : we find a reading in Amps. if we clamp the neutral wire. and zero when clamping the earthing wire.
You can be shocked because that the wire is passing electricity and that its moving around. Your body has electricity in them and when touched the electricity are moved and you get shocked
yes
# 6 will carry about 40 amps more than a number 12
Nutral wire can be measured by using clamp meter, if there is a current passing through the wire, we got a reading in the clamp meter i.e. 2A. If we clamp the earth wire by the clamp meter the reading will be zero.
In formal electrical jargon, "potential difference" describes voltage. So a 120 V live wire should have a 120 V potential to the earth wire.AnswerIt depends where you live. In Europe, the nominal potential difference between a line and earth conductor is approx 230 V (approximately, because earth potential might be a little lower than the neutral potential); for North America, the nominal potential difference is about 120 V.
The potential difference between the terminals of a connection wire is determined by the voltage difference applied across the wire. This voltage difference creates an electric field within the wire that causes charge carriers to move and establish a potential difference between the terminals.
An important type of winding wire

normally the blue and red wires are hot white is standaed for nutral,
A 6 mm earth wire can be used to replace a 2.5 mm earth wire, but if there is an existing 6 mm earth wire it must be 6 mm all the way to the earth, and not replaced by a smaller wire between it and the earth connection.
Yes, the red wire is a positive wire (+) and the black wire is a negative wire (-) :D
... a potential difference between the ends of the wire.
Making a load On, By using a clamp meter for measuring the current in the wires : we find a reading in Amps. if we clamp the neutral wire. and zero when clamping the earthing wire.
The difference between a black wire and a white wire in electrical wiring is that the black wire is typically used as the hot wire to carry electrical current, while the white wire is usually used as the neutral wire to complete the circuit and return the current to the power source.
