IF a phase touches another phase in a 3 phase AC supply it goes bang due to them being 120 degrees apart and therefore being at different voltages when they touch (this, i understand), so WHY, after passing through an electrical component, can all three phases be joined onto a 0 potential wire (the neutral)? Surely they are still out of phase and should still go bang?
all text books seem to be really poor at explaining this and im yet to meet anyone that has got anything other than a half arsed answer that strays from the point... any help appreciated.
