Gender neutrality adjective form genderneutral describes the idea that language and other social institutions should avoid distinguishing people by their gender, in order to avoid discrimination arising from the impression that there are social roles for which one gender is more suited than the other. A common example occurs in the opposition to gender specific job title s such as stewardess and policeman in favor of terms that do not convey gender such as flight attendant and police officer . Grammatically, genderneutrallanguage such as gender neutrality in English is exemplified by the use of a genderneutral pronoun , although this is sometimes confused with the neuter grammatical gender . Proponents of gender neutrality may support public policies designed to eliminate gender distinctions, such as favoring same sex marriage on the belief that society should not limit the roles of husband or wife based on gender. Other controversial views may include support of genderneutral toilet s, with public restrooms being available without distinguishing the gender of the person using them. However, it has been observed that gender neutrality in the law has changed the nature of custody disputes, making it less likely that women will be awarded custody of their children in the event of a divorce . ref Regina Graycar, Jenny Morgan, The Hidden Gender of Law 2002 , p. 260. ref See also Gender blind Epicenity Unisex Androgyny References reflist Category Androgyny Category Gender Sex stub ... more details

A neutral sixth can be formed by subtracting a neutral second from a minor seventh . Based on its positioning in the harmonic series, the undecimal neutral sixth implies a root chord root one minor seventh above the higher ... more details
A shared neutral is a connection in which a plurality of circuits use the same neutral connection. This is also known as a common neutral , and the circuits and neutral together are sometimes referred to as an Edison circuit . Three phase shared neutral In a three phase circuit, a Neutral is usually shared between all three Phases. Commonly the system Neutral is derived from the star point on feeding ... in an Industrial distribution environment. It is most common to refer to the Neutral as a Neutral phase . Commonly the Neutral is taken to ground or Earthed through the Neutral Earth link, a bond between the Neutral bar and the Earth Bar. It is common on larger systems to monitor any current flowing through the Neutral Earth link and use this as the basis for Neutral Fault protection. This Neutral ... against Earth Neutral and give a voltage reading. In a three phase and neutral system of say 480Volts phase to phase, the phase to Neutral Earth voltage will be 277Volts 480 3 . Without this Neutral .... The Neutral Earth link allows any Phase to Earth fault to develop enough current flow to trip ... of a potential downstream fault to ground and ensuring that the fault loop impedance back to the Neutral ... one neutral, the worst case current draw is one side has zero load and the other has full load, or when ... in the neutral equals that of the other two wires. In a three phase circuit with three balanced loads, the Neutral has zero current in it when the loads are equal, and at most one unit of current ..., rather than the Neutral Phase. It is important to remember that the three Phases are out of phase ... for balanced loads. This can be dangerous the Neutral current can exceed the rating of the 1 ... of the third harmonic are additive, resulting in more current in the shared neutral conductor than in any of the phase conductors. In the absolute worst case, the current in the shared neutral conductor can be triple that in each phase conductor. Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of shared neutral ... more details
About an economic term Dungeons & Dragons related term Alignment Dungeons & Dragons Neutral good Refimprove date May 2009 In economics , neutral goods are goods that have a demand that is not dependent to the income . Examples of neutral goods include prescription medicines for people with medical conditions, such as insulin for diabetics. Although an individual s income may vary their consumption of vital prescription medicines will remain constant. An alternative definition says that, a good is a neutral good if the consumer does not care about its consumption at all. That is, the consumption of that good will not increase the consumer s utility. For example, if a consumer likes texting, but not data package on his phone contract i.e.data package is the neutral good here , then increasing the amount of data allowance will not increase his utility. If an indifference curve is constructed such that Data Allowance is measured on Y axis and Texting is on X axis, the indifference curve will be a vertical line. ref Hal R.
