Answer / gulshan goyal
MAINLY THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF FAULTS SHORT CIRCUIT AND OPEN
CIRCUIT FAULTS.IN SHORT CIRCUIT FAULTS WE STUDY ABOUT
SYMMETRICAL AND UNSYMMETRICAL FAULTS.THE THREE PHASE FAULT
WHICH IS RARE MOST SEVERE FAULT IS SYMMETRICAL FAULT.AND
LL.LG ,LLG ARE UNSYMMETRICAL FAULTS.By performing short
circuit MVA analysis for positive, negative and zero
sequences, symmetrical three phase
and unsymmetrical phase-to-ground, phase-to-phase and
double phase-to-ground fault currents can be resolved.

Answer / monalisa rout
unsymmetrical faults,symmetrical faults,ground-to-
ground,line to ground ,nline to line and megger is a unit
to measure it.

Answer / barkha jha
Above answer is very correct
i want to add some value
for short circuit protection we use fuse as primary
protection & overload load relay for backup protection
for earth fault- we check phase to ground insulation
resistance,in case of earth fault its value comes to zero
For open circuit - check the continuity of supply

I am having a 42KW 3 phase electrical heating furnace, heating element is 80/20 nichrome material, my connections is made in such a way that 2 star connection compromising 2 coils per phase so totally 12 coils, shall if i use it unbalanced star condition (instead of 2 group of 3 phase or 1 group of 3 phase, connecting 4 phases of 5 phases) what will be the consequences and is it acceptable?
