How do you protect your appliances from harm in case of
neutral failure in a three phase power supply set up.
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Yes if neutral fails in a three phase power supply system
than the single phase voltage may increase. You can fix voltage sensitive suppressors across the supply line in your applances which will short circuit the excess voltage to earth and cause the RCCB to trip and save your appliances from further damage.

Whenever neutral fails in three phase system, the connected
loads will get connected between phases owing to floating
neutral.Hence depending on load resistance across these
phases, the voltage keeps varying between 230V to 400V.A
suitable servo stabilizer with wide input voltage range with
high & low cutoff may help in protecting the equipments.

Answer / raj
Simply use ELCB or RCBO as incomer in the 3ph supply system
since if neutral opens it will trip the complete supply
without damaging to the system.

Two CTs 1600/1 and 35/1 are in series. while checking the ratio test of a CT(1600/1),same 1600A will also pass through the CT having ratio 35/1. Will it be harmfull to the ct(35/1),if yes , what will happen.CT secondary is shorted
