Answer / raul
basically there r 3 types of faults..... transient fault
(80%), semi-permanent fault (12%) and permanent faults
(8%). transient fault occurs only for a small duration, the
CB is opened for a short duration of time so dat d cause of
failure is cleared and the line is re-closed by closing the
CB. for semi-permanent faults which r basically due to a
twig falling on d line or a bird spanning around a
conductor.......the auto-reclosing after the cause is burnt
away.........and finally the permanent faults ie single
phase permanent fault n 3phase permanent fault.....for 1-
phase fault, the remaining two phases r operational n the
faulted phases is taken out for repairs n after d repair is
done the line is reclosed n for the other 3-phase fault,
the complete 3-phases r taken off for repair n after d
repair is done, all d 3-phases r reclosed

Answer / vinod
Auto reclose is using in transmission line circuit breaker
with selection of single phase, three phase or single and
three phase.
In transmission line there is chance of momentery fault,
based on the area and lenth the time and times of auot
reclose being selected.

Answer / tarun purohit
When any fault occures in line,the circuit breaker trips the supply off to the line.This is called the auto reclose system in Circuit breakers.

WHY WE CAN GENERATE POWER IN 3PHASE MODE ONLY NOT IN 4 OR 5 PHASE?
How you calculating the 30 Hp 3 phase AC motor of power what size of cable is used for this motor?
10Hp, 3-phase, 415v, 50Hz induction motor. The above motor is to run on Star-Delta connection, so how do i make following hardware selection 1) MCB, 2) Contactor, 3) Wire Gage (Depending on P-P current or Line Current), 4) OLR, Please tell in detail how to do the above, so as to get the ans. of it even if the Hp rating changes.
why we need the starters for motors
write circuit diagram for a motor rotate in forward direction once it started and when pressed the same button it should rotate in anticlockwise.
