in 3 phase (4 wire) star connection - is current pass through
neutral??

Answer Posted / md. obaydur rahman

We know that,in a star connection for balanced condition the
phasor sum of three line current is zero. As a result in
balanced condition there is no neutral current. But in
unbalanced condition the sum is not zero and a current is
flowed through the neutral wire.

When we use air circuit breaker, it has O/L protection ,time delay SC protection, Instataneous SC protection & ground fault protection. They all have some setting range. But what is the suitable/allowable setting for the above protection which will be safe for the equipment? For example-O/L protection setting have a range of (0.4,0.45,0.5,0.55,0.6,0.65,0.7,0.8,0.9,1.0)xIn Time delay SC protection have a range of (1.25,1.5,2,3,4,6,8,10,12)xIn Time delay setting is 0.02,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4 Instataneous setting is fixed to 20xIn Gound fault setting is given 100A,300A,600A,900A,1200A This setting are for 2500A ACB. So what will be the basic allowable setting for the above protection? is there any formulae to calculate this<
