To prevent overheating/damage/fire of the electrical components in a circuit.
With out the fault protection there will be damage to equipment to accidents to user in case of fault.
Restricted earth fault protection is used to protect a specific zone, and should not trip for a fault outside of that zone (usually limited to a transformer, and possibly extending to lowside, highside, and tertiary breakers).
In the event of a busbar fault, the next level of protection will operate and disconnect the busbars.
There is such a thing as a three phase to earth fault, so maybe this is what you mean by a "balanced earth fault". I don't believe any earth or ground currents would flow in this case. A restricted earth fault is a typical phase to earth fault, where the zone of protection is restricted to a specific area, such as around a transformer. "Restricted" is referring to the protection method, not what is actually going on with the currents and voltages.
A neutral grounding resistor panel is used to resist fault current to the ground. It is used for alternator protection protection purposes. When a fault occurs in the alternator, the panel helps force the current to the ground.
Sensitive Earth Fault protection is required to either to alarm or trip the faulted circuit. It is usually used for resistance grounded or ungrounded systems; where first earth fault doesn't interrupt supply. It is also used on long overhead lines (even solidly grounded systems) where earth fault currents can be significantly low.
what is the essential concept of underlying radiation protection
· Basic protection is insulation, barriers, enclosures, placing out of reach and SELV/FELV/PELV. Fault protection is use of RCD's, earthing etc.
Protective devices - relays, CT,PT, isolators, circuit breakers are used for fault protection. Fault protection means If there is a fault in the circuit, the circuit must be cut off before any damage occurs due to fault.
General Protection Fault
If the fault is a direct short to ground, the fault current can be high enough to trip the upstream protection.
the essential requirements for the automatic marine machinery
Restricted earth fault protection is used to protect a specific zone, and should not trip for a fault outside of that zone (usually limited to a transformer, and possibly extending to lowside, highside, and tertiary breakers).
Yes, it will.
first check the history and delete
1)Instantaneous overcurrent protection. 2.Ground fault protection. 3.Thermal overload protection. 4.Stalling Protection. 5.Phase unbalance protection.
No, a circuit protection device must open the circuit on a fault current or overload.
