What would be the expected result of a disconnected neutral on a TN-S mains supply into a building?

  • Depends if 5he building has a 3 phase supply then its a very real possibility that some loads meant for 240 volts could see anything up to 415 volts which would result in lots of damage possible fires  and other unwanted effects. If its a single phase supply then you could either have total power loss or only partial if there are other return paths via metal pipes etc
