Explanation:
For electrical transmission, some potential difference is required.
This potential difference is fulfilled by the use of live wire and neutral wire.
The live wire is at some potential difference whereas the neutral wire is at zero potential.
Thus, the current flows in the circuit.
It shows that neutral wire has direct requirement without which electricity cannot be transmitted.
If the live wire completes the circuit, no current flows through it because of no potential difference.
