    only high potential cannot cause flow of current. So, when a Human being touch such a wire, its whole body is at a high potential, but due to the absence of a lower potential, the current cannot flow....

    Yes and single pole means that circuit switch two poles / two wires (eg; live and neutral)
    3 poles used to switch 3 phase systems
    4 poles used to switch 3 phase + neutral wire
    5 poles used to switch 3 phase + neutral + ground wire

    We know about that the neutral and ground is almost same means but in this most difference is neutral may be earth but we didn't say that earth is neutral. neutral some current have as 0.0000001Amp bu...
