Answer: This carries the 230 V alternating potential difference from the power supply. The wire covered in blue plastic is the neutral wire and this completes the circuit from the appliance back to the supply. It is usually at 0 V. The wire covered in yellow and green plastic is the earth wire.

HOPE THIS HELPS
