I was trying to simulate a circuit where it can detect grounded neutral conditions in the household. I need to have a current transformer which can detect the current differential ans sends a signal to op amp which can further amplify it/convert to voltage. How can i do this?

If both line and neutral are passed through the core of a current transformer, the secondary current of the CT will be proportional to the difference between the two currents. Does that answer your question?
