What else can I help you with?
Why in electrical wiring you need both neutral and ground if neutral is zero voltage why you cannot used it as a ground?
The neutral is a current-carrying conductor, the grounding wire is not; it is for safety as an ALTERNATE path to ground. For example, if something happens to disconnect the neutral or if the hot side comes into contact with conductive portions of an appliance, the grounding conductor can save a life by providing a safe fault mechanism.
Why link is provided as neutral in an ac circuit?
link is provided in neutral path of ac supply because it should provide a path for unbalanced currents , if we use fuse ,fuse may blow of and damage the entire system and also unbalanced currents may be more than the fuse rating
What does a hot terminal do?
A 'hot' terminal is a slang expression for the line terminal of an AC supply. In Europe, for example, a single phase supply to a building has three conductors: line conductor, neutral conductor, and protective (earth) conductor. The line conductor has a potential of 230 V with respect to the neutral; the neutral conductor is at approximately the same potential as the earth conductor. In North America, there are two line conductors, which are at 240 V with respect to each other, and at 120 V with respect to the neutral.
Why you need neutral conductor?
To complete the circuit. The word neutral is a convention it does not mean it has no purpose
Can a neutral conductor be uninsulated?
Yes, a neutral conductor can be uninsulated, but this is generally not recommended for safety reasons. An uninsulated neutral conductor can pose a risk of electrical shock or short circuits if it comes into contact with conductive materials or surfaces. In most electrical systems, neutral conductors are insulated to ensure safety and to prevent unintended grounding or short-circuiting. Proper insulation helps to maintain the integrity and safety of the electrical system.

What is the purpose of neutral contactor?
Presumably, you are asking the purpose of a neutral conductor, rather than 'contactor'?A alternating-current supply has two conductors, a lineconductor and a neutral conductor. The line conductor is at system potential (e.g. 230 V in Europe), whereas the neutral conductor is at approximately earth (ground) potential because it is earthed (grounded) at the supply transformer. The neutral conductor acts as the 'return' path to the transformer, carrying the same load current as the line conductor.
What two colors may be used for the ground conductor neutral?
What two colors may be used for the ground conductor (neutral)
How are voltages imported into installations through the supply neutral conductor?
A 'voltage' is another name for a potential difference. As the name implies, a potential difference exists between two different points or, in the case of an electrical installation, between the line conductor and the neutral conductor. So the neutral does not 'import voltages'. Voltages exist between the line (hot) conductor and the neutral conductor.
What are the property of good conductor?
a good conductor should be electrically neutral.
What type of circuit is it that has a hot conductor contacting a neutral conductor?
A shorted circuit.

What is meant by PEN conductor when referring to earthing of supply system?
Conductor combining the functions of both a protective earthing conductor and a neutral conductor
What color are the phase neutral and earth cores in flexible cords?
It depends on the electrical standards of the country in which you live. In Europe, for example, the line conductor(not 'phase conductor'!) is brown, the neutral conductor is blue, and the earth conductor* is green/yellow stripe.[*properly called a 'protective conductor']
What is a sentence for neutral?
I put my car in neutral because it broke down.
