Eart fault relay:

In the case of a grounded neutral system the vector sum of the current flowing in the three different phases will flow through the neutral conductor. Under healthy condition the resultant current flowing through the secondary grounded neutral current transformer will be zero. In such a three phase system if one of the three phases gets grounded or earthed then unbalancing of current occurs, the vector sum of all the three phases will have certain value. If this value exceeds the set value indicated on the relay, then the relay actuates and trips the main circuit. Further the protection can be achieved using three individual CTs for the three phases, the secondary terminals of the CTs have to be connected in parallel to the sensing circuit of the Earth Fault Relay. In case of unbalancing of current or earth fault the vector sum of these currents in the three phases will have certain value. If the fault level exceeds the set value on the relay the relay trips the main breaker. Pressing the RESET button after the clearance of thefault can reset the relay.The red LED provided on the front panel will glow in case of a fault. Pressing the TEST button the healthiness of the unit gets checked. The green LED indicates the healthiness of the unit.
