A neutral wire is essential in a three-phase star (or wye) connected system supplying an unbalanced three-phase load. Without a neutral, the voltage across each of the loads may become unbalanced, too.

Does the NESC have any regulations as to how many volts can be on utilities primary neutral wire?

I am trying to find out myself, having found odd harmonics coming thru the neutral wire with my breakers open...I've been trying to identify the source of a strange hum/vibration in my home. If you mean the NEC, they have no power over electrical utilities. Your in home neutral wire should be at ground potential so there should be 0 volts to ground.


Does the neutral water having any conductivity and yes does neutral water and conductivity having any relation?

Neutral water does have some conductivity due to the presence of ions from dissolved mineral salts. However, the conductivity of neutral water is very low compared to water with higher ion concentrations. The conductivity of water and its neutrality are related in that the presence of ions influences the water's ability to conduct electricity.


What is a shorted CPP switch?

A shorted CPP switch refers to a neutral safety switch, also known as a clutch pedal position (CPP) switch, having an electrical issue where there is a direct electrical connection or bypass in the switch instead of the expected open or closed circuit. This can cause problems with starting the vehicle as the switch may not properly detect the clutch pedal's position.


Single phase 4 pole Gen alt w 240V 60hz output no neutral. you check from each lead to ground and get 50-70V How do you get a neutral for connecting Gen to a standard breaker box having 240V and 120V?

Neutral is at the jumper that changes it from 120v to 240v. Two stator windings are used in series to make 240v; at that junction is (when wired in Series)your neutral/common/ground. Ground this terminal and use it for your neutral/common. When wired in parallel you have 110v and the jumper is removed and there is no common/neutral and ground is from the frame of the generator.

How do you fix a p0705 code on a Kia Spectra?

P0705 is the code for the transaxle range signal malfunction. It can be caused by faulty park/neutral position switch, misadjusted park/neutral position switch, the park/neutral position switch harness shorted or the park/neutral position switch circuit having a poor electrical connection. Try changing out the switch.

neutral is having to the electricity it have more number of electrons is there.............for ex...our home haveing less no of electrons come from electicity it not enough for using electrical application.....so some spark...some time it touch electrical equipment shock there so home inbuilt ground having some electrons taking ground so its safe for our elecrical equipment......any doubt mahmoothmth@gmail.com
