The neutral ground agreement was not successful because of changing alliances and shifting power dynamics between the major European powers. Additionally, there were disputes over the interpretation and enforcement of the agreement, leading to its breakdown.
Just checked and it does have a ground connection.
What two colors may be used for the ground conductor (neutral)
If you have to connect the neutral to ground to make the circuit work then you have an open neutral in your circuit. Be careful in handling the neutral as there can be voltage potential on the neutral if a load is connected. In a properly wired home that has been inspected by the local electrical inspector the neutral should be bonded to the ground at the main service distribution point. There will be a green screw that projects through the neutral bus and is threaded into the back of the electrical panel. This should be the one and only place in the whole electrical system where this neutral to ground connection takes place. Dangerous!!!!! The ground is the safety to prevent you from getting shocked due to a malfunctioning piece of equipment. By using the ground for a neutral you will be energizing the entire ground system of you house or business. Thus anything with metal on it and a ground wire going to it will be electrified if the ground fails at the breaker box or building ground rod. Do you want to take this risk? Not I..........
A bare grounded neutral should never get close to the ground if it is wired properly. When the neutral leaves the meter base it is in conduit and should enter into the distribution panel where it connects to the neutral buss. It is at this junction that the copper ground wire is connected after coming from the outside ground rod or ground plate which ever grounding system was used.

In 1806 General James Wilkinson tried to settle the border disputes between Texas and Louisiana. He helped to set up a neutral zone between the Sabine River and the Arroyo Hondo. The Neutral Ground Agreement stated that no Spanish or United Stated troops could occupy this land until the border conflict was resolved. Outlaws frequently used this neutral zone to escape the law.
As i know,neutral is the return path of current & ground is for any leakage current
A neutral bar is where the neutral wires from the circuits are connected, while a ground bar is where the ground wires are connected. The neutral bar carries the current back to the power source, while the ground bar provides a path for excess electricity to safely dissipate into the ground.
The neutral to ground voltage in electrical systems is important because it helps to ensure the safety of the system. When the neutral to ground voltage is at the correct level, it means that there is a proper connection between the neutral and ground wires, which helps to prevent electrical shocks and fires. Monitoring and maintaining the neutral to ground voltage is crucial for the overall safety and functionality of an electrical system.

No, ideally there should be no voltage between the neutral and ground wires in an electrical system.
There is normally no voltage on the neutral line because the neutral line is grounded. However, and this is always important, do not assume that neutral is grounded, nor that there is not an elevated voltage on neutral or ground due to a possible ground fault.
the bare copper is always a ground
Neutral wires are actually ground wires. They enable the circuit to be completed.
