WHY EARTHING NOT NEEDED IN BATTERY IN SUBSTATION?

Answer Posted / cnu

Basically a device is earthed to avoid any stray
circulating current that appear on the body of the device
operating with an AC supply.

since AC creates an alternating flux. this changes in flux
induces stray currents in the metallic body of the devices.

When coming to DC, since it is a constant voltage it does
not produce flux change to induce any currents so earthing
is not required for a DC battery.

What is the need of earthing transformer for delta side of a transformer. (Think of a line section between a star/delta transformer at a grid substation and delta/star transformer at a village. An earthing transformer is there at the delta side of the star/delta transformer at grid substation). As there are no ground reference there will not be fault current if a one phase is grounded. Further L-L phase will be sensed by the primary side of star/delta transformer as a L-G fault. So why an earthing transformer is required at delta side
