Neutral is white wire which carries return current and green is ground which
carries fault current. They are close to the same potential but they are not
the same. So hook them up accordingly.

I just installed a Ceiling fan in my bedroom and everything ok went fine
until I tryed to hook the wires up. From the outlet box all I have is two
wires Black (Hot) and White (neutral). So I hooked Ceiling fan wires Black
and Blue to the Black wire, and the Fan white wire to the outlet box white
wire. So What to do with the green ground wires? Well I had no place to
put
it so I hook it up to the White neutral. It works just find, Neutral and
Ground is the samething right? I don't want to burn my house down.
