By proper earthing techniques 1. can be solved.
For 2. the neutral current must be reduced . If possible
the rating of the neutral conductor can be increased therby
reducing IR drop. or an isolation transformer may be used
with it's secondary neutral connected to earth.

need to make a report. Need to choose a 3phase induction motor. Load conditions motor will operate in : Maximum Load: 30 Kw Speed: 2950 rpm Ambient temp: 20 cent Supply voltage: 440V Frequency: 50Hz need to look for the safety factor when choosing the motor, went through catalouge found a few, but dont know how to choose the safety factor allowing an extra load something above 30 KW to avoid any harm.
