When electrical equipment is faulty, it is only a concern.
An electrical fault can cause equipment failures.The normal working of the system is disturbed.The death of humans, birds and animals along with equipment failure and electric power supply interruption can be caused by the faults.
Insulation failure and conducting path failures are the causes.These failures can be caused.
If the type of ez_fad_position is 'undefined'.There are short circuit faults.
There is a break in the conducting path that causes the open-circuit faults.The current is equal to zero due to the interrupted path of current flow.These faults are called series faults.The causes of these faults are common.
The short circuit fault is a fault that results in an abnormal connection of low impedance between two points.These faults are called shunt faults.The case of short-circuit faults has a heavy current flow.This fault can be caused by insulation failure or conducting path failure.This is the most common fault.The causes of these faults are common.
Line to ground fault is when there is a short circuit between one of the phase conductors and the earth.
Double Line to Ground fault is a type of fault that occurs when a short circuit between two phases and the earth.
Line to Line fault or Phase to Phase fault is when there is a short circuit between two phases.
Triple Line to Ground fault is a type of fault that occurs when a short circuit between three phases and the earth.
Three-phase fault or Triple line fault is when there is a short circuit between three phases.
Unsymmetrical faults are referred to as single-phase to ground fault (LG fault), Two-Phase to Ground Fault (LLG fault) and Phase to Phase fault.
Symmetrical faults are referred to as three-phase to ground fault.
The reduction of actual loading of the alternator can be caused by open circuit faults.This will cause an increase in the speed of the alternator.Over Frequency can be caused by this over speed.
Heavy current associated with short-circuit faults can cause the equipments to be damaged.
There is a chance that the faulty element may cause a fire.There is a chance that fire will spread to other parts of the system.
There is a heating of rotating machines due to unbalancing of supply voltages and current caused by short-circuit faults.
The triple line to ground fault is the most severe fault.From top to bottom, the severity of faults increases.
The most severe fault that can occur in the system is a three-phase fault and its short-circuit ratings are used to determine the required switchgear system.
