what happens to a turbo alternator if it get trip and 1 out
of 3 poles of circuit breaker in close condition

Answer Posted / a.p.nanjappa

Unbalanced current will develope till the upstream end
circuit breaker protection detect ( inverse time overcurent
and earth fault)and trips and isolate the fault.
The turbo alternator can run till negative sequence
charactristic constant limitation.I2t=K. Only generator
winding overheat and some time sparks,de[pends on fault.

It is also observed that major accident took place not only
damaging generator circcuit breaker pole damages,arcs and
body cabinet,arc chute burned,turbo alternater bearing
failure nted.

Is there a possibility to use such a treshold voltage for the NMOS part of a CMOS circuit that during the switching it will start conducting only after the PMOS part will be already closed, by this eliminating the leakedge current? Please note, I'm not asking about the well bias in standby mode, but about the "antileakedge" measures during normal operation.
