How ElCB tripping if Neutral touch with ground
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / umesh
elcb is connected in series with the netral & ground,
whenever the neutral touch to the ground then the circuit
will completed, the ELCB will be trip.

Answer / anil bhatia
The design of ELCB is such way that all current passes
from phase to neutral to complete the path . Any current
passes from phase or neutral to ground sense the circiut
that there is deflection of current and trips it to stop
supply.

Answer / k.prakashchandra
I think only RCCB requires the neutral wire connection and
earth wire connection is for ELCB.If there is any leakage in
neutral wire ,the ELCB trips if neutral comes in contact
with the earth wire.

Answer / thiyagarajan
How does ELCB WORKS?
If we are using a ELCB:
In fault condition or if the circuit is in open condition, current passes through the neutral.
We are connecting the ELCB from neutral to ground.
The fault or open circuit current in the neutral passes to ground and the equipment get protected from the severe shock.

Can any one provide the inspection procedure of MIMIC for VFD panel? Details: If someone wants to have a mimic in the VFD panel what are inputs considered for the mimic(like on,off,trip) whether we are able to add speed variation in the mimic(if so how can we get) and what are the parameters to be checked in the MIMIC during inspection?
Why use in ht motore
Where there is voltage,there must be current.Is this right or wrong??

What is the formula to find out the kvar required to improve the powerfactor from .85 to .99 at 1500kw, 415v.
it is difficult to interrupt a capacitive current because (a)it has a leading power factor (b)current magnitude is very small (c)the restriking voltage can be high (d)stored energy in the capacitor is high
