Answer / denzel101
Ammeters and voltmeters read R.M.S values
Symmetrical faults are balance faults occuring in power
system. For a fault to be classified as symmetrical, all
three phases must draw equal fault currents and the phase
displacement must remain 120 degrees. examples
1. all phases shorted to each other.
2.all three phases shorted to earth.
Unsemmetrical faults occurs when one or two phases are
shorted to earth or two phases to each other.the faulty
phases will draw fault currents which are not equal in
magnitude with healthy phases and does not have 120 degree
phase displacement.

Answer / anil
ammeter and voltmeter always reads R.M.S value of the measurement only
and when comes to faults
symmetric faults: 3 phase faults
unsymmetrical faults:
1. L-L FAULT
2. L-G FAULT
3. L-L-G FAULT

What is principal to reduce earth leakage current with isolation transformer? When isolation transformer is installed in input stage of system, earth leakage current is reduced. the reason is why the leakage current of 2nd stage of isolation transformer does not affect the 1st stage's leakage current. I would like to know the reason. As you know, earth leakage current is a kind of AC. So, How to reduce earth leakage current in case that isolation transformer is used?
