How rating of a circuit breaker for a system is determined? The rating of a circuit breaker for a system is determined based on the balanced three phase fault occurring in it. Even though the three phase faults are quite rare, it imposes the most severe duty on the circuit breaker. Hence for any … Read more
A short circuit is a situation in which two or more different lines (having different voltage levels/ different phase/ different terminals) come in contact and finally leads to the flow of large short circuit currents that may damage the equipment or the system. In a three-phase system, a occurs when two or more phases come … Read more
