Hey guys. A little confused here and google is just confusing me more so I thought I'd come to the experts for help.
Now at distribution level we can have our 3 phases (live) and another neutral core with a earth sheath surrounding the wire this is known as SNE( separate neutral earth) and we can also have PME( protective multiple earth ) which is earthed periodically from the neutral
Now this is where I become unable to comprehend it. At distribution level what is the function of the earth and neutral and when they are combined (PME ) how do they function?
P.S. I'm from uk so may use different terminologies.
