In a three pin plug socket-the ones with earth, live(or hot) and neutral, I see the reason behind "earth" being grounded for safe passage of current that has leaked to the equipment's body to the earth. If that is right, then I learn that the "neutral" point is also grounded? If So, then how does the circuit close because I see that for current flow, there must be a closed cicuit. Thus if the domestic live originated from transformer, then say, from my house the neutral must trace its path to the transformer's neutral?
