Neutral | Earth |
It is a conducting wire used in AC circuit that provides a returning path for the flow of electrical current. | It is the low resistance path used to prevent damage cause by the leakage current. |
It always carries current. | It doesn't carry any current. It will be having minor electricity during any electrical disconnections. |
It has to be connected through a neutral line. | The earthing connection can be executed independently or it may be connected through a neutral line. |
