what is the diff between earth leakage relay and earth
fault relay?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / arnab
sensitivity of earth leakage relay is more than earth fault
relay. earth leakage relay is connected with core balance
current transformer.

Answer / rajdip thakur
Earth fault relay trips when the current through the neutral exceeds a preset value.Simply it acts on the superposition theorem. Whether the vector sum of the phase current and the neutral current are same or not.If not then it operates.
But the earth leakage circuit breaker operates when some current flows from neutral to ground. We know that the voltage difference between neutral and ground is zero.It operates only when there appears some voltage.

Answer / tina john
Eath fault implies a significant contact between phase and ground and it can cause heavy current and can cause damage; earth leakage is a high resistance contact with earth that the phase may have in cables; devices etc.; since the current is small it wont create any problem usually. However, its a sort of indication that there are insulation problems present in the cable/devices.

Answer / gunasekaran
earth leakage relay are sensitive earth fault relay. both
are working same principle residual current method.first
one is we r using CBCT second one is ordinary CT.

Answer / mrt
both the relay are same, both relay are operated through
the core balanced circuit breaker. normally the cbct
contains the current(say nuetral current ) is zero. at
balanced condition the neutral current is zero. in case any
fault(insulation,ground fault..) in the line the neutral
current will change from zero. this will operated the relay

what will be happen if earth point is being used for as a neutral point for raw power , and same will be used for ups earthing
There are two nos of 33Kv/11Kv 5MVA transformers conecting through HT cable from substation having metering at substation itself.One transformer used at a time another remains stand by.Further 11 nos of 11Kv/440V transformers are attached on it and each transformer is having its own Power factor correction panel.Now one 33/11Kv transformer at no load condition/Stand by condition is having power factor in leading side upto 0.21 and while when another tranformer at same situation have power factor in lagging 0.42. Now one thing is clear that transformer one is having 1.5 Km long 33kv cable due to that PF goes in leading side and another is having only 250 mtr length remains him lagging. Now i want to know that how i can maintain the Power factor at no load/ stand by position though both are behaving in seperate manner.
