Neutral wires are actually ground wires. They enable the circuit to be completed.
The colour of the neutral wire in Australia is blue with marking N.
In electrical wiring, the live or "hot" wire is typically brown or red, the neutral wire is typically blue or black, and the ground wire is yellow or green. So, in this case, the brown wire is likely the hot wire, the blue wire is the neutral wire, and the yellow green wire is the ground wire.
You should never switch the neutral wire. The neutral of the appliance should be connected directly to the neutral wire leading to the service panel neutral bar.
If the motor is operated from a three phase three wire distribution system the motor will not need a neutral wire.
The neutral wire does carry current in a closed AC circuit. Clamp a clamp on amp meter around the neutral wire directly after the circuit load and it will read the same current as is on the "hot" wire.

Typical home wiring will have one hot wire, one neutral wire, and one ground wire per circuit. An open neutral would indicate that the neutral wire, usually white wire, is broken.
If wired properly the ridged wire is the neutral.
The neutral wire is typically colored white or gray.
The neutral wire and power wire are never connected together.
In an electrical circuit, the white wire is typically designated as the neutral wire.
In an electrical circuit, the white wire is typically used as the neutral wire, not the hot wire.
To test a neutral wire, use a multimeter set to measure voltage. Place one probe on the neutral wire and the other on a ground wire or metal box. A properly functioning neutral wire should show a voltage reading close to zero. If the reading is significantly higher, there may be an issue with the neutral wire.
