The Importance of Neutral Wire in 3-Phase Systems
Neutral in A 3-Phase System1-Phase Structure3-Phase Loads3-Phase SourcesWhen one individual phase line is used to supply energy to a load device, there must be a return path for the circuit to be completed. The neutral and ground wires provide that return path and a redundant return path in case of faults. In this sense, you could use a 3-phase power system, then access one line plus the neutral, and you have gained aSee more on control elecdiags
