Geez, because it is just that; A NEUTRAL EARTH, there should be equal potential on each side, therefore no current flow, and no voltage.

What is difference between isolation transformer and earth protection relay?
An isolation transformer is a mutual transformer having a voltage ratio of 1:1, so that the secondary circuit is electrically isolated from the primary circuit, yet subject to the same voltage.An earth protection relay is a category of protective relay that responds to an earth fault monitored by a current transformer (CT). In the event of an earth fault being detected by the CT, the relay with activate the trip circuit to a circuit breaker which will then disconnect the fault.
Why is the neutral point grounded on a transformer?
The secondary side (output) of a three phase transformer develops a "separately derived system". That is why you do notsupply a neutral to a three phase transformer. It develops its own reference to ground by being bonded to the transformer casing and to a substantial earth ground, such as a ground rod. The XO tap on a transformer provides the neutral to the secondary line. It will have a double wire lug. The neutral wire going to the panel being supplied goes under one lug and the same size wire is to go to the ground lug on the transformer chassis The ground lug is also a double with the other lug to be wired to the earth ground.
What is an Earthed voltage transformer?
An earthing transformer provides a neutral in a delta connected system.
How do you calculation of selecting Neutral Earthing Transformer?
iT IS ISMILAR TO THE GROUND RESITOR CALCULATION FOR TRANSFOMER THE TYPICAL EXAMPLE WAS ANSWERED EARLIER FOR TRANSFORMER DT.19-06-2009 Neutral of transformer can be grounded solidly earthed OR with Neutral Grounded with Resistance. Typical shunt calculations fro 5 MAV 11/6.6 kv transformer neutral are as :_ Transformer rating = 5 MVA Voltage ratio = 11/6.6 KV Vector Group = Dyn11 (6.6 KV ground through Resistor) During Earth fault voltage between Neutral & Earth = 6.6/√3 = 3.81 KV Earth Fault current will be limited to = 5 x 10³ /(√3 x 6.6) = 437.38Amp. N.G.R. value in ohm = V / I = (3.81 x 10³) / 437.38 = 8.71 Ohm Value of N.G.R. is 437.38 Amp, 8.71 Ohm., 10 Sec NGR are inserted On Higher voltage to restrict earth fault current BY SRI
How does the NGT works?
NGT means Neutral Grounding Transformer. It is Connected between TRF star point and earth point. It is protect the trf from short ckt .
Voltage across Neutral and earth for a 3 phase auto transformer?
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.
Can an isolating transformer have a center earth tap?
I suppose it could, but then it wouldn't be purely an isolation transformer. It would then be a isolation and either step up or step down transformer.
How do you earth in the 1600 kva transformer?
In 1600 kva transformer we provide NGR (Neutral grounding resistance)
What is maximum distance of Earth pit for transformer neutral earthing?
100meter
How do you reduce neutral to earth voltage in three phase system?
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.
What is the reason for using a neutral current transformer on a transformer?
A current transformer is primarily used at the neutral point of a transformer for earth fault protection. A neutral current transformer will measure any ground fault current which will essentially flow from the star point of the transformer. A fault-detection device other devices is connected to the current transformer and, if the fault current exceeds a certain trigger value, the fault-detection device will give a trip command to an earth-fault relay to disconnect the supply of electricity to the transformer.
Do all electrical power sources flow to earth e.g. Secondary winding of an isolating transformer with no earth connection on the neutral line?
There are situations where the secondary of a transformer is not grounded and the neutral is not connected to the neutral of the primary. This can cause a potential shock hazard so the secondary side needs to be protected.

How do you reduce neutral and earth voltage up to 0 volts?
If you are reading a voltage it is the drop across the resistance to ground. To get rid of the voltage get the resistance lower. This can be accomplished by installing more ground rods to the grounding system. Utility companies usually like 3 ohms to ground or less.
If we have 13 volts on earth and neutral so?
The neutral and earth are connected at the supply transformer, so 13 volts on the neutral means that you are far enough from the transformer to have a 13 volt drop on the neutral. You probably have the same drop on the live, so the total volt drop could be 26 volts, which may be excessive. It could indicate a fault somewhere.
