Earth leakage circuit breaker

Answer / nishant

“ Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker”. It is used to provide
protection of household circuit from leakage of current
through circuit to earth. Especially, it protects person who
is supposed to get shock while touching the faulty
appliances. Basically it measures difference in current
between “Live wire” & “Neutral wire”. If difference is 0,
fine. Else ELCB gets tripped. You must have noticed that,
difference won’t be zero iff current would have flown
through any person and felt shocked while touched the faulty
circuit. So, tripping of ELCB protects the person from
electric shock

Answer / abhilash.t.m

Earth leakage circuit breaker. it protects the machine from
if any leakage current flows or short ckt occurs.when any
leakage current flows through elcb it will disconnect the
main circuit breaker.

ELCB is an one type of circuit breaker.

Answer / ashvin prajapati

ELCB = EARTH LEAKAGE CIRCUIT BREAKER

IN CIRCUIT CURRENT FLOW BETWEEN PHASE AND NEUTRAL MORE THEN
30MA THAT TIME ELCB GET TRIPPED AND PROTECT THE PERSON OR A
MAJOR FAULT OR A BREKDOWN. GENERALLY ITS USE IN DOMECTIC
PURPOSE BUT ALSO USE IN INDUSTRIES ALSO.

ITS AVAILABLE IN SINGLE PHASE AND THREE PHASE

A powerplant has 8 gensets operating in grid parallel mode. In one genset sometimes there is pf variation and kvar variation. The plant operates in pf mode. When this variation is observed the load is stable, voltage is also stable, freq and genset speed is also stable. How will you check the functioning of pf card. What shall be the ideal output vdc of the pfc, from there it is input to AVR?
